This message from Pastor Lonnie emphasizes that hope speaks louder than fear. Mary had many reasons to panic, but she chose to anchor her faith: she did not know the plan, but she trusted the One behind it. Mary faced risk, judgment, and the unknown, yet she still said yes. Hope moves forward because it trusts that God is not finished. The message concludes by centering everything on Jesus. Hope is not just a feeling; hope is a person who has come close. God works through imperfect people and imperfect moments. Just as Mary’s simple yes changed the world, hope enters our lives even when it seems far away.
