27 to a virgin named Mary. She was engaged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of King David.
28 Gabriel appeared to her and said, “Greetings, favored woman! The Lord is with you!

Talk It Over:
Do you know someone who likes to have control over the remote, driving, decisions, money?

Action Step:
Confess, to the Lord, your struggle to “Let Go” and surrender any area of your life to Him and ask Him to give you the willingness to surrender.
