In this portion of Luke, we find God’s solutions or answers to situations that seem to fit “When God doesn’t make sense” or seem impossible. We face impossible situations all throughout our life. It may be a health or financial problem, or perhaps, a conflict with a person that seems to be unresolvable. It is our “When God doesn’t make sense” circumstances that give God the opportunity to show us that He can do the impossible any time, any day, in any way He chooses.

“When God doesn’t make sense” situations are like magnets for God’s intervention in the life of believers. All throughout the Bible we see God’s answers to “When God doesn’t make sense” events. Today’s portion reveals the angel Gabriel’s visit with Mary with one of those “When God doesn’t make sense” situations. Merry Christmas!
