Luke 1:46-55 Are you a control freak?

Luke 1:46And Mary said:
            “My soul exalts the Lord,
      47And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.
      48“For He has had regard for the humble state of His bondslave;
            For behold, from this time on all generations will count me blessed.
      49“For the Mighty One has done great things for me;
            And holy is His name.
      50“AND HIS MERCY IS UPON GENERATION AFTER GENERATION
            TOWARD THOSE WHO FEAR HIM.
      51“He has done mighty deeds with His arm;
            He has scattered those who were proud in the thoughts of their heart.
      52“He has brought down rulers from their thrones,
            And has exalted those who were humble.
      53“HE HAS FILLED THE HUNGRY WITH GOOD THINGS;
            And sent away the rich empty-handed.
      54“He has given help to Israel His servant,
            In remembrance of His mercy,
      55As He spoke to our fathers,
            To Abraham and his descendants forever.”

And Mary said.....
My soul exalts and my spirit has rejoiced!
Is it a wonder God used her? She had a humble heart.
She exalted God and gave Him glory.

Read these verses several times and let them sink in.

Remember, God is in control.
The question is, are you trying to control your world or allowing Him (The Creator of the Universe) to control your world?
The difference is, allowing God to move from the passenger seat to the drivers seat.

Don’t be a control freak, let God take the wheel!


Blessings, David
