O- Mary's faith is incredible! Although "Mary was greatly troubled at his words" (verse 29) she trusted God. Can you imagine being told you were going to have a baby... and were a virgin? WHAT? And she trusted! Can you imagine what other people would think? What her fiance would think? And to be told, "So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God." (verse 35). And she trusted! "For no word from God will ever fail."
A- I can trust God. His word will never fail. I need to follow His lead without question or doubt. He never falls through on His promises. And he promises that His plans for me are not to harm me. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11.
P- Dear God, I pray that I would always trust you completely. That I would not fear or doubt. I pray that I would have faith like Mary. Thank you for her example. Thank you for your many promises that you always fulfill. Thank you that you are God and that you are perfect. Thank you that you know my needs better than even myself. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen!
