I give "thanks" for being allowed to ask big questions...



Don't you love the fact that we serve a Huge Savior, that allows our questions?

I do!

I don't understand why people hurt us.
I don't understand why we may lose our job.
I don't understand why about the homeless situation...

I don't understand why some people get cancer...
I don't understand why a young child dies...
I don't understand why I wasn't able to have a child of my own...but we are allowed to ask the questions.

We may not get our answers, but then again we might!

Today, studying Luke 1...look at verse 34...Mary ask the question, "How will this be,"...according to the NIV, in the Message "But how",  the ESV "How will this be" .  Mary asked the question she had on her heart and we are allowed to do the same.  We know without a doubt she didn't understand it all, but she accepted God's will for her life.  Today, let's give thanks for this young woman who ask a question and replied these amazing words...I am the Lord's servant...May it be to me as you have said."

I don't understand a lot of situations, but God does.  It is my prayer that we all learn to reply like Mary.


Sweet blessings,
Debbie
