Christmas For The Rest Of Us - Mary

John Rittenhouse
This week we learn, like Mary, we are chosen by God not because of our worthiness but purely by grace. The same favor Mary receive, described in Scripture as “freely given”, reminds us that our struggles and doubts never disqualify us from God’s purposes. Her response, “I am the Lord’s servant,” becomes our model of trusting surrender even when the path ahead is unclear.
