The Virgin birth was not a debate for Mary. She knew the reality of a virgin pregnancy. She probably put up with morning sickness and the other struggles that accompany pregnancy. When she was six months along, she probably discovered how hard it is to find a comfortable position in which to sleep. She went away from her hometown to visit her cousin Elisabeth and found a wonderful person who believed her story of the angel’s visit and a virgin pregnancy.
In this warm loving environment, Mary’s soul was released, and she magnified the Lord. She rejoiced in her complete faith and trust in God. She called Him “God my Savior.” She believed the future held great things for her and her child. The past and present might be difficult, but she believed future generations would call her blessed. She rested in God’s might and holiness and knew He would do great things.
What has God done for your? Are you confident that he will do great things in your life?
Lord, I rejoice in You and praise Your holy name.
