Discover how God uses ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things, as illustrated by the story of Mary and Joseph. Through biblical verses from Ephesians and Luke, we explore the power of faith and divine favor in overcoming fear and embracing God's calling. Mary’s willingness to accept God's plan, despite uncertainty, highlights the importance of obedience in the face of life's challenges. Join us in reflecting on how, like Mary, we can trust in God's ability to do immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine.
