Gabriel Visits Mary
God is Worthy of our Trust
Read Luke 1:26-38
The coming birth of Mary’s Son, Jesus Christ, was to be a miracle. The Holy Spirit would actually place baby Jesus in Mary’s womb. We know from the Bible that Jesus was without sin. God wanted to bring His son into the world in a wonderful way to bring Him glory and honor, to prove Himself faithful and show that God is worthy of our trust.
Mary submitted to her part in God’s great plan. She didn’t say, “First, tell me what will happen. I need to know all the details before I will say yes to you.” Mary said yes and left the rest to God. She didn't know how all of it would work out, but she knew that God had a great plan. She knew that God's plan was perfect and that it was best. The world needed a savior and Mary was chosen to be His mother. There were many things she did not know; so she held on to what she did know. God is worthy of our trust!
Family Discussion:
• Mary was an ordinary girl chosen by God. Why do you think God chose Mary to be the mother of Jesus?
• What did Gabriel, the angel, tell Mary?
• What were some of the things Gabriel said about Jesus?
• Why is the news of Jesus coming to earth good news for us?
Memory Verse:
For with God nothing will be impossible. LUKE 1:37
