The mama herself.
I am sure that half of you had some kind of Christmas or Christmas Eve church service about Mary, and since she is maybe the most "famous" of our ladies, I only have one thing to say about her that I really glean from this story:
Mary let God change her plans.
It was difficult, it was ripe with public scorn and ridicule, and it was not what she had anticipated her life to be like. But that is what God wanted her life to be like. So she let him do it. She let him do things differently.
Luke 1:38..."Let it be to me according to your word."
When faced with the news that God was up to something, that was her response: Let it be.
And may that be OUR response to him, as well.
Let it be, Lord. Let it be.
