Luke 1:42 (NIV) In a loud voice (Elizabeth) exclaimed: “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you will bear!”
Immediately upon embracing Gabriel’s message, Mary faced the reality of “the space in-between”—the space between the supernatural world of the angel’s message and the physical world in which she would be judged harshly. But God provided supernatural elements to help hold Mary’s faith secure as she lived in “the space in-between.” God provided a friend (Elizabeth). God spoke to Joseph. God added supernatural elements to the birth experience (shepherds visiting, a bright star, wise men to her house when the child was two years old). Are you living in a “space in-between”? Pay attention to the encouragement of friends, the Word of God that comes alive to you as you read, and notice the supernatural provisions from the Lord so far. God will bring you through.
