So...what have we just read? We have read that David was wonderfully made WHILE IN HIS MOTHER'S WOMB...that Jeremiah was called to be a prophet WHILE IN HIS MOTHER'S WOMB...that John the Baptist jumped for joy WHILE IN HIS MOTHER'S WOMB, and that the Apostle Paul was called to preach WHILE IN HIS MOTHER'S WOMB... So what would you tell a girl who is possibly as young as 14, or maybe as old as 16, is not married, and pregnant. And the boy she's engaged to has no idea who the father is - except that he knows it's not him... For 9 long months she endures the stares and condemnation of her fellow townsfolk... And when asked who the father is, she tells a story that one couldn't make up if they tried... And her name is Mary... |
