“For nothing is impossible with God.”  (Luke 1:37)

The angel from God spoke evocatively to the Virgin Mary, absolutely confirming God’s Salvation for humankind.  The Virgin Mary deeply experienced the Grace that God bestowed upon humankind, and was inspired to say to her cousin Elizabeth, “He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful to Abraham and his descendants forever.”

When the Virgin Mary said to the Angel, “Look! I am the Lord's servant. May it be to me as you have said”, the Son of God became Man in her womb.  She was a virgin, and yet miraculously became the Mother of the Saviour.

God’s plan of creation, especially His works of Salvation, is beyond our imagination, but it does not conflict with the truth, nor with logic.  God allows us to understand the true meaning of “Emmanuel” (God is with us), as the Son of God was born in a poor estate, lived among the sinners, and died flanked by prisoners.

Out of love for us, God did not take away His Son’s cup of suffering (the Cross).
