Mary chose to trust in God’s plan despite the uncertainty and fear she must have felt. In the same way, we all face moments where fear and anxiety threaten to overwhelm us—whether it's the stress of the season, the busyness of our days, or the challenges that come with traveling and being with family. But just as Mary found courage by trusting in God's presence, we too can push past our fears. With God by our side, we can face the unknown, knowing His peace will guide us through.

About this Plan
This 25-day Advent devotional was created from CornerstoneSF's video devotional series, Rise & Shine. With videos every day except Sundays, this devotional invites us to open our hearts and prepare for the coming of Jesus. It will begin broadly and then focus deeply on Mary’s experience, highlighting how her humility, faith, and openness paved the way for Christ’s birth. Through her example, we are encouraged to cultivate a heart ready to receive the Savior, embracing His love and presence in our lives.
