Good news, you’re pregnant. Congratulations! These were the words essentially spoken to Mary. Yes, you’re not married, only engaged. Yes, the baby will not be you’re husband’s child. Yes, He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High God. He is Jesus, the Messiah.
Whew, that’s a lot to take in, especially when you know that pregnancy outside of marriage will get you stoned. But Mary said, “Yes, I am a servant of the Lord; let this happen to me according to your word.” Wow! I want to have this kind of devotion.
