Scripture
Luke 1: 30-31, 38
30. And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call His name Jesus.” 38. And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.”
Reflection
You don’t have to be qualified to be used by God.
God looks for a heart that’s willing, and that will be obedient to His call.
Mary was chosen to bring our Savior into the world. She didn’t have power or wealth – she had faith and a willing heart.
Don’t ever believe that you’re not good enough to be used by God. He will use whoever He chooses, and He often works through those who are humble, faithful, and ready to say “yes” to Him.
Let's Pray Together
Thank You, LORD, for choosing ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things.
Help me to have a willing heart, and to lay down my own will so that I can follow Yours. Use my imperfections, weaknesses, and mistakes to bring glory to Your name and to serve Your purposes.
Amen.
