Bible Text: Luke 1:26-38 | Pastor Keith Bergstrom
Series: Christmas Wonder & Warning
Mary's Faith grew. She started with honest doubts, open-minded doubts, open to answers. In being open-minded that meant she surrendered control of her life. As her faith grew, she resolved to obey God and submit to Him as a servant. God honored that faith and encouraged her faith through her cousin Elizabeth (Luke 1:45). With more confident faith, Mary burst into song (Luke 1:46-47). Mary's faith grew to love the Lord with all her heart, soul, and strength (Deuteronomy 6:5). May our faith grow as well, even to the point of trusting God for the impossible (Luke 1:37).
