Sometimes we are given a task that is not fully understood by us let alone others. Nevertheless, we carry it out, and the concept of what is being done becomes more visible in our minds as we proceed with it. Eventually, the manifestation of the greater purpose is revealed.
Mary a young Jewish virgin girl was given a task that could have cost her everything.(Luke 1:26-38). She would have suffered scorning, being ostracized and disowned by family members, and ignored by close friends. She could have even lost her one true love, the young rising star, Joseph, the carpenter, the builder, skilled tradesman, her prince. It is he that would love, nourish and take exceptional care of her, with provisions and protection,
her worship leader, her hero.
I tell you, one visitation from God changes everything. Visitations from God always bring disruption and amendments to our immediate plans.
Mary without thought of consequences, says “Yes” to the Will of the Lord. She could only conceive then, in her heart that she was the chosen vessel that would bring the agent of redemption and transformation to a lost and sinful humanity.
Mary was ready to lose it all in her “Yes” answer to the Lord.
How much are you willing to give up by saying “Yes” to the Lord (Luke 14:26-35).
