Luke 2:17–19 (ESV) — 17 And when they saw it, they made known the saying
that had been told them concerning this child. 18 And all who
heard it wondered at what the shepherds told them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things, pondering them in her heart.
NOTE: I could do a
little more pondering in my heart and a little less talking. Except, talking to
the Father is good. I have learned a lot this week. And I do need to ponder the
things I have learned. I need to rethink how I approach people in a post-Christian
world. I need to properly balance my commitments. Mary pondered the events of
her life. They were not easy. She faced ridicule from family and friends. She
faced hard circumstances (the long ride and no housing). Life was not easy, and
she pondered what God was doing.
PRAYER: Father, help
to learn the right things from life events. Help me to know when to share
things and when to shut up. Help me to care and love others, but also, not to
go against the laws of the land (when they don't violate your law). I trust you
that you are working good in this situation.
