A Christmas Greeting!

Again Mary brings us the example of simple trust and obedience.  When the angel announced to Mary what was about to happen in her life, she could have questioned many things.  What would people think?  What would they do to someone who looks like she conceived out of wedlock?  How would Joseph understand?  But Mary asked no questions. Instead she made one of the greatest statement in the entire bible, "Mary, said to the angel, 'Be it unto me according to thy word'".  No simpler and more powerful statement in the entire bible.  Simple wonder at God's choosing her to bring His Son into this world.  I as so impressed by this word, we made it a theme of our ministry for an entire year.  That along with the second great statement Mary made at Jesus first miracle. When the servants were told by Jesus to bring the water pots to him and he would do a creative miracle, Mary simply said, "Whatsoever He commands you to do, do it".  My heart cries to God to have such a clear revelation of His Son. May this Christmas season resound with joy and peace in your heart and home. From Action Evangelism and Kingdom Life University along with the Brandt household, I wish you a very merry Christmas.
