Trusting God in the Christmas Story, Part 2

It should come as no surprise to us that Mary, the mother of Jesus, had questions when the angel came to her and revealed God’s plans. The angel gives her many details about the birth of her son, but of course this is the kind of news that would fill one’s mind with amazement, and all kinds of questions. We can all relate with that to some extent. We might understand some of what God is doing in our lives, but there are many questions with no answers yet. Painful times come, we don’t understand their purpose, often we struggle with unmet expectations and sudden trials.
