Mary's obedience teaches!

Luke 1:26-38…emphasis verses 29-30;38 - Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. But the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God…"I am the Lord's servant," Mary answered. "May it be to me as you have said." Then the angel left her. (NIV)…How different would our life be if we were more like Mary, the mother of Jesus. Mary did not worry about what others would think, what would be said, whether or not her espoused would be there for her, or how her she would answer her family…There is a old saying, what people think of you is none of your business – that is what they think, it does not make it truth except for them…Mary honored the called upon her life, she obeyed and submitted. She did enter into the games of show-and-tell, or deal-or-no deal; she said I will. Her only worry really was why, how, she was chosen out of all the people. God said, me?... See, favor ain’t favor why struggle over its existence in your life…She knew, she was not worthy and did not think she was ready but knew, if He said it, then he would provide. How different would our world be if we each had the mind of Mary that befits our time? That we would not get caught up with other people opinions of our past, or our present; we just keep our eyes focus on the Father. How few our fears and heartaches would we have to contend with, if we just trusted in the Father without reservation, and not worry who would be with us on the journey He taking us. We would reduce our disappointment, hurt, stress levels and find blessing untold heap upon us for generations, upon generation. See, our obedience, submission, and trust in the Father today, grants legacy in our life for tomorrow. This only happens when we release our expectations when they come in conflict with God ordained reality. It changes our world. It allows anger, selfishness, and conceit to concede to amazing grace and love unconditional distributed by us, as we model the Sovereign One! We will begin to see the diversity of his character, God…We are privy to the majestic ability to create multifaceted people to worship, praise, and seek him in methods varied but focus on Him! Then no weapons form against us shall prosper for He that is in me is greater than those externally to me, as the Law of Confession cleanse us and keeps me in His will!
