THE LORD INVITES US TO SURRENDER...

...our POSITION.
Before we can surrender the things that matter to us, we need to come to a place of surrender in who we are.
THE LORD INVITES US TO SURRENDER...

our POSITION.

our PLANS.
The journey is much more enjoyable if we follow where the Lord is leading.
"The virgin Mary made them the matter of her private meditation. She said little, but kept all these things, andpondered them in her heart, v. 19. She laid the evidences together, and kept them in reserve, to be compared with the discoveries that should afterwards be made her.


As she had silently left it to God to clear up her virtue, when that was suspected, so she silently leaves it to him to publish her honour, now when it was veiled; and it is satisfaction enough to find that, if no one else takes notice of the birth of her child, angels do.


Note, The truths of Christ are worth keeping; and the way to keep them safe is to ponder them. Meditation is the best help to memory."

- Matthew Henry's Commentary
“Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.”
- Corrie Ten Boom
