James Mayson: “Jail Birds.’ Jewel: “What happened when your father told Robert Jennings lie ought to put something aside for a rainy day?” Lois: “A little later dad missed his raincoat.” I. Who Mary Was (Luke 1:2G, 2?)- She was a Jewish, maid of Nazareth. The first information we have of her vs that she was engaged to be married t*» Joseph, a carpenter of the same village. The custom among the Jews was for betrothal to take place about a year before marriage. During this interval the woman remained with her pu rents. 14. Mary Accepted Motherhood at God’s Command (Luke 1:26-56). T. God sent Gabriel to Mary (vv. 26-38). It was during tins interval' of be trothal before Joseph and Mary were married that God sent the angel Ga briel! to announce to- Mary that she wa» to be the mother ©f Jesus. More than seven hundred years before, Isaiah prophesied that a virgin should give birth to- a son whole name should he called Immanuel—Cod With Us CIsaiah Z:11>. Though at first per plexed, she accepted the annunciation wi't.hs remarkable courage and devo- lion. Mary accepted motherhood at a tremendous- cost. She was conscious of her virgin purity. She knew that to- become a mother under such eir- cumstances- would expose her to sus picion. and shame. This was the view that certain Jews took of the matter, for they east Into the face of Jesus, that- he was- born of fornication (John 8:41). Her faith wa# such that she responded with noble courage. 2; Mary visits Elisabeth (Luke 1 r39- 45), tii. her embarrassment slit* set out on a visit to an elderly kinswoman named ••Elisabeth,” where she could have the help of a woman of spiritual discern meni. 3, Mary’s song (vv. 4656). Having sought the sympathy and encouragement of her friend, her tri umphant faith canned her beyond the misunderstanding and shame which awaited her. and caused her soul to burst out in a wonderful song of praise. As [minted out by another, three features of her character stand otir i*n tins sor^: ft>. Her heart purity. Duty a pure heari. rejoices at the nearness of God. (2) Her IiinnfHty. She forgot herself and gave her heart in praise tu God. (3) Her unselfishness. SSie did not primarily think of the undying honor which vvbufd be at tached to her, but the blessing which would come upon future generations through her. 4. The birth <;f Christ at Bethlehem (Luke 2:15-19). What Gabriel announced to Mary was now being fulfilled. Caesar's de cree concerning taxation brought Jo seph and Mary to Bethlehem for the fulfillment of Micnh 5:2. Because of the crowded Inn, the birth of the world’s Savior took place in a stable. III. Mary's Faith In H»r Son (John 2:1-5). 1. Her anxiety (v. 3). The arrival of Jesus and his disci ples pul a drain upon the resources of the host, for their Invitation seem ingly jcamejifter their arrival a) Cana. 2. Mary presents the need to Jesus (v. 3). The clear Implication is that she requested him to embrace this oppor tunity to present Ids Messianic claims by working a miracle. 3. Jesus asserts his authority (v. 4). He respectfully reminded his mother that he had now -passed from her au thority and that his Father’s will was Supreme. 4. Mary’s confidence (v. 5). Perhaps as he asserted his author ity he gave her a sign by which she understood that he would not fail her in her hour of embarrassment. Ac cordingly she directed the servants to carry out whatever Instructions he should give. IV. A Dying Son'a Thought for His Mother (John lt):25-27). It is beautiful to note the tender care which Jesus In his dying hour manifested for Ids mother. He com mitted her to the care of John. John accepted the responsibility of a son and took her to his own home. Veni, Vidi, Vici T came, I saw, I conquered, may be Inscribed by the Savior on every mon ument of grace.
