“Has ‘the Sunrise from on high’ filled your life? Do you have ‘the knowledge of salvation’? Is Christ your mighty ‘horn of salvation’? Are you assured of ‘the forgiveness of sins’? Have you been delivered from ‘the shadow of death’? Are you able to ‘serve him without fear’? Are your feet treading ‘the path of peace’? If not, you need the Sunrise—you need the Christ who came to die for you—you need the spiritual realities of Luke 2, the birth of Jesus - within you!” Then you too will leap like calves released from their stall.

As we read the Word of God and pray, the Holy Spirit prompts us to action. It may not be as clear as the encounter Mary had with Gabriel, but it is God’s call to us nevertheless. We can believe God can work in and through us and surrender ourselves as God’s servants, or we can refuse and go our own way. But how much more fulfilling and exciting to join with God in His work in the world! Frightening as it may be, it’s nothing like what Mary faced. Be courageous! Receive God’s favor by believing and acting, knowing your reward is in heaven (Matthew 6:20-32). When the Spirit of God calls you to action, remember Mary’s response.

Do you realize you are more blessed than Elizabeth? If you are in Christ, the Lord has taken away your reproach from before your Creator (Colossians 1:22). The curse of sin and death was lifted off you and placed on Jesus your Savior (2 Corinthians 5:21). Don't doubt it. Live in the joy of it. And now something greater than a child is being formed in us. Christ Jesus Himself is taking shape in us as we increasingly yield our lives to the Lord (Galatians 4:19).
