YES! to all God’s promises in your life.
YES! to every impossible thing He has planned for you.
YES! to the sweet, the preposterous, the unimaginable.
I bless you to embrace Mary’s words to Gabriel:
“Let it be unto me according to your word.”
I bless you to accept God’s grace
No matter how ridiculous
And undeserved
And scary
And glorious.
I bless you to walk by the promises of God to you,
Not your promises to God.
God’s promises aren’t pie in the sky.
They aren’t reserved for the spiritually elite.
They are yours.
Now and forever.
I bless you to receive them,
To hold them,
To cherish them.
I join your heart today, to say
YES! to all God’s promises in your life.

Today’s Reading: Luke 1:35–38 (ESV)
35 And the angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy—the Son of God. 36 … 37 For nothing will be impossible with God.” 38 And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.
When you pray God’s promises back to God, you release the power of His good plan for your life. And that’s the Gospel!
