To the world, Mary was just a poor peasant girl…but to God, she was a woman of rare strength. And when the angel visited this chaste Jewish girl who was betrothed to humble carpenter, her world was turned upside down with the announcement that she would have a son by Immaculate Conception. This miracle was only amplified by the social perception of her being an unwed mother…her pregnancy causing her immense embarrassment and the near loss of her fiancé. But in this Scripture, Mary is called favored…meaning unmerited kindness and grace from God. For God saw a willing, and obedient servant and the only person to be with Jesus throughout His entire life- from birth to death.
