MARY

Being raised Catholic Mary was talked about a lot. But now going to a Baptist church I couldn't help but notice we very rarely mention her. I understand that Jesus should be our main focus but come on. She was the virgin, yes virgin mother of our Savior. That alone is something worth talking about. Can you imagine what she went thru when that was sprung on her? Then to be told your Son will die on a cross to save everyone. To come to learn that she basically is not His mother but that He is her Father. I can't even imagine the amount of faith she had.

That's why it was so refressing today when, at church, we talked about Mary. A lady at church, Diane, got up in front of everyone and gave Marys perspective of Jesus life. She did a great job. I was kind of expecting it to be glossed over but it wasn't. She talked about what Mary must have been thinking and feeling. And about the questions and doubts Mary must have had. And thru it all the faith she had in Gods plan.

We don't talk about Mary much at church but when we do theres nothing held back. It sure was nice to hear it. And this is just another one of those things I've been thinking about and then there it is answered. I'm telling you, there is some powerful stuff going on here!

GOD BLESS YOU
