He will be great, and he will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father. And he will reign in the house of Jacob for eternity

        (Luke 1:26-38)

26 Then, in the sixth month, the Angel Gabriel was sent by God, to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,

27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the name of the virgin was Mary.

28 And upon entering, the Angel said to her: "Hail, full of grace. The Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women."

29 And when she had heard this, she was disturbed by his words, and she considered what kind of greeting this might be.

30 And the Angel said to her: "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found grace with God.

31 Behold, you shall conceive in your womb, and you shall bear a son, and you shall call his name: JESUS.

32 He will be great, and he will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father. And he will reign in the house of Jacob for eternity.

33 And his kingdom shall have no end."

34 Then Mary said to the Angel, "How shall this be done, since I do not know man?"

35 And in response, the Angel said to her: "The Holy Spirit will pass over you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. And because of this also, the Holy One who will be born of you shall be called the Son of God.

36 And behold, your cousin Elizabeth has herself also conceived a son, in her old age. And this is the sixth month for her who is called barren.

37 For no word will be impossible with God."

38 Then Mary said: "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. Let it be done to me according to your word." And the Angel departed from her.

This passage is only taking about the hope , expectations as we await the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. John the Baptist has announced his coming and told us to make his way straight so as to benefit from the son of the most high God.

My question now is what and what have you done to make this world a comfortable place for Jesus to come and say ?

Let us pray

Mighty king,we thank you for the hope that you have giving us in Christ Jesus as our redeemer and comforter,and we ask may you supply us with your grace to keep his way straight so that he will come into our heart and reside .
