Trusting God's Promises

Take a moment to read Luke 1:39-45 and ponder the following thoughts:

Something powerful happens when we trust God enough to not only hear what He says but also believe it. After Mary encountered the angel and submitted to God’s plan for her life, she visited her cousin Elizabeth, who was also miraculously pregnant after experiencing infertility for years. When Elizabeth heard Mary’s incredible news, she was filled with the Holy Spirit and declared, “Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her!”

Mary believed God when He said she would give birth to the long-awaited Messiah, and He blessed her with peace when she could have been full of anxiety. She was confident that the birth of the Savior of the world—her Savior—would be worth any trial she faced along the way.

What has God spoken over your life that you need to believe today? Trust His plan, and receive His peace, knowing He knows best!

Happy Holy-Days!
