She was just a young unassuming girl chosen by God to do something extraordinary. An angel of the Lord came toMary and with justeleven words andMary's entire life was changed forever. Eleven words earlier she was just a girl from Galilee and now 'generations will call her blessed'! "Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you." From there the angel would tellMarythat she would be with child and give birth to the Savior of the world. This is Christmas -- God's redemption plan born to the virginMary. God is the main character of this story, yetMary's humility and servant hood cannot be missed. I hope this December you will have a "Mary" Christmas! (Sorry I couldn't resist!)
