“In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”” Luke‬ ‭1‬:‭26‬-‭28‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Including today, there are only nine Fridays till Christmas. If you are like me, you’re already watching the Christmas Hallmark movies. Today I am excited to share a new Christmas song with you. Oh What King by Katy Nichole. Some of the lyrics sing; “Whom am I that you would choose me (Mary), just a lowly girl from a simple family. Who am I that the Ángels speak my name, called to be the mother of the one who comes to serve”.

If you read my post from Wednesday I talked about how God chooses each of us to be His Disciple regardless of our sin. Can you imagine being Mary and being chosen to carry the savior of the world? Imagine how she felt when just a simple girl was approached by an Angel and called by name; “But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God.” (Luke‬ ‭1‬:‭30‬ ‭NIV‬‬)

On this Finish Friday, let’s finish the week with confidence because God has chosen each of us. He chose you for your spouse, your children, your friends, your church, your job, your community, and more. Stand tall knowing whose you are.
