OVERSHADOWED

READ:
. When she asked how this could happen, the angel Gabriel said, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you"(v.35).
The impossibility in Mary's life was overshadowed not by darkness but by the brightness of God's glory and power. Her response continues to leave us in awe: "Let it be to me according to your word"(v.38).
In the coming weeks, as we read again the Christmas story and consider the birth of Jesus into our world, it's worth pondering the word overshadowed. It speaks so powerfully of the Lord's presence in our hearts and His ability to outshine the darkest moments. - David McCasland
I'm overshadowed by His mighty love,
Love eternal, changeless, pure,
Overshadowed by His mighty love,
Rest is mine, serene, secure. - Ironside

In every situation, we are overshadowed by God's mighty love and power.
