“This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 1:18
She was so young. The betrothal was well known in her village—it was the way of life, and the expected path to take.
But her heart bowed to Someone greater than just the traditions.
When the Holy One sets before you HIS way of living, how could you refuse?
She was so young. But she chose the way of Holiness, and said “yes” when the Angel Gabriel spoke Yahweh’s words to her.
The coming of Messiah would be a miracle, and she would live in the very middle of it all.
When the Holy One sets before me HIS way of living, will I choose to walk in HIS miracles?
Family Activity: Visit the Homeless shelter near you or choose other community service center and volunteer to do some random service.
Prayer: Lord may my heart be humbled before your Holy presence. Teach me to walk before you Holy and blameless in Jesus name.
