God will work it out...

While the Messiah is perfect and awesome, his entrance into the world was not so elegant. Joseph was going to divorce Mary because through his eyes, from the information he had, she was pregnant and he knew he wasn't the father.

Then there's Mary. She could be stoned to death or publicly disgraced for being pregnant out of wedlock.

From the beginning we see problems, it looks a little messy, maybe even impossible. How was it going to work out? How was God going to take care of this one?

God chose Mary. He wanted her to carry the Messiah in her womb. He didn't ask her to figure out all the details. He just chose her as a vessel to work through.

God has chosen you. He wants to work out his plan through you. It might not look like He is right there with you, the situation might look messy and even impossible. But Thats the type of conditions God loves to work through. When it looks like there is no way, God loves to make a way. He is never early or late, but always on time.

What happened next... God gives Joseph a dream. He tells him not to worry, the baby in Mary is the Messiah. Take Mary as your wife and name the baby Jesus, because He's gonna take away the sins of the world.

God's got the details figured out. He knew all along. He's got the details figured out in your life too. If you trust Him He will never let you down. He's always faithful even though the situation looks bad. He wants to work through you, but don't worry about how its gonna work.

God Will Work it Out. He's God, He can handle it.
