Say Yes, like Mary...

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord .  “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isaiah 55:8‭-‬9 NIV

Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
Luke 1:29 NIV

We often think of ourselves as a tiny part in creation and that we are,  but it is in the image and likeness of whom and by whom we are made; we have been given authority over the earth. Each one of us has purpose and part to play when on earth. Most times we'd assume it to be simple and plain, but that's not why God created you,  His ways are beyond our imagination perhaps even that is why Mary was troubled when she greeted by Angel Gabriel. And it is ok to be overwhelmed by God's plans for you, because they are huge. The key however is to submit humbly to his will no matter what the consequences are, just like Mary, Joseph and Jesus did. Letting God's will be done.

I pray the God the Father reveals to you this day His plans for you and may you like Jesus humbly accept His will, for you have the advocate and comforter of His Holy Spirit along your way. Amen

God Bless you and your loved ones :)
