Jesus Makes Ordinary Lives Meaningful

Scripture (Luke 1:31–33, NIV):

“You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”

Mary was not favored because she was extraordinary. She was favored because God chose to bring Jesus into her life. The focus of the story is not Mary’s ability, but Jesus’ identity.

In the same way, our lives become meaningful not because of who we are by ourselves, but because of who Christ is in us. When Jesus dwells in us, even ordinary lives take on eternal significance.

Prayer:
Jesus, thank You for coming into my life. Teach me to find my worth and purpose in You alone. Amen.
