35 And the angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy—the Son of God. 36 And behold, your relative Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son, and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren. 37 For nothing will be impossible with God.” 38 And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.
Luke 1: 35-37
Nothing is impossible with God. Have we forgotten that already on our journey? It’s a saying we’ve heard so many times that it might not hold the weight it once did. But remember those times God moved and we knew it—the Spirit-filled church service or concert, the hospital rooms, the late-night or early-morning conversations that had to be had.
Mary remembered the angel Gabriel coming down to give her the greatest gift ever known on earth. She had hope in what was to come because of what she had already been through. She knew God was with her—and we should know that He is the same God with us today.
Remember those miracles from God: moments of birth, close calls, relationships given new life by God Himself, with no other explanation. Nothing is impossible with God.

God, all things are possible with You. You have shown us that time and time again, but forgive us to be quick to forget. Be patient with us. Allow us to remember those moments today for Your glory for us to share with others. Your hand is always working for the good and we thank you. We ask for You to continue to work in our lives and we pray You touch those asking right now. Help us to remember Your goodness because it has never failed.
In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
