Christmas is a time to Remember why we celebrate –

The Birth of Jesus.

Matthew: Chapter 1 verse 18.

This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about:

His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph but before they came together,

she was found to be with child through

The Holy Spirit.

***

Mary must have been a beautiful young woman spiritually to be so obedient to God saying yes to what He asked of her.  How many of us can truly say that we are obedient to submit ourselves to the ways of The LORD?

Dear LORD God I pray today that I may be more obedient to your voice and not to my own wants.  In being obedient to you I know  that you will be blessing me even more than I can ever imagine.

Thank you for Mary the Mother of my Saviour –

 –  Jesus Christ my Lord.  Amen.
