Something 'bout Mary

Today, something 'bout Mary dawned on me.
The angel delivered the mission to Mary, but the angel did not help Mary deliver the message.
I wonder if Mary had a thought like this:
"Angel, I was hoping you could accompany me as I return to my world--to help me explain the supernatural inside of me?"
But the angel didn't. And Mary continued her mission, alone.
And as history is writing our story, we often experience the same thing. God gives us a supernatural, almost outlandish mission.
Yet we find ourselves returning to our worlds to explain it, to obey it...alone.
The world might laugh. Our peers might jeer. And we might think:
"But God, I can't..." "God, how will I....?" "God, they'll never believe me...."
What was it about Mary? It was her F-A-I-T-H
God gives us supernatural missions because He is the great Supernatural-Provider in each of us.

AND THERE IS NOTHING HE WON'T DO,
THRU YOU,
THAT HE DOESN'T THINK
YOU CAN'T DO.
Just ask Mary.

I can definitely vouch for this experience. God has given me such a crazy vision in ministry and I found myself alone last year, especially around family members. It's hard to articulate something that has yet to be seen by the eyes of man. I'm realizing the kind of faith that guys like Abraham, Noah and Ezekiel had when they were given tasks that seemed almost laughable to others. It can get lonely sometimes, so Mary... I feel you. :-)

Antwon, Thanks for stopping by. Keep your gaze on God; your glimpse on others. God's got your back, man!
