Mission

Luke 2:19 “But Mary treasured up all these things, pondering them in her heart.”
This ensured that
she could “see God when He appeared” and “recognise his messenger at his arrival.”
God “made his face shine on her”
and his NAME was upon her, and he became flesh within her
Genesis 22:18 “and in … [her] offspring shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because … [she has] obeyed my voice.”” “
Luke 2:20 “And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.”
Just as we have seen and heard, through those who came before us, and so we glorify & praise God for his goodness to us, and make his NAME and GLORY known among the nations.
