This is the Christmas story that everyone is familiar with. Virgin Mary was pregnant, and it was difficult for her to explain it because no one would believe. Her fiancé Joseph was no exception; when Mary told Joseph about it, Joseph didn't want to humiliate Mary, but still could not believe and accept it. If you were Mary, what would you do? If Joseph didn't believe Mary, wouldn't God's plan be ruined? Or, would you complain to the Lord that He should have personally explained to Joseph about the pregnancy. We often want to interfere and take matter into our own hands so that we can influence the situation, but it often leads to the opposite outcome.

Brothers and sisters, you need to trust God and learn to depend on Him. There's popular saying: "Let go and let God." You need to let go and let God work. Learn to rest in the working hands of God, because our God will never make a mistake and He's a timely God. When the Israelites was at the Red Sea, Red Sea was in front of them and Egyptian army was behind them, and at that very moment the sea water parted for the Israelites to cross. Verse 20 says that when Joseph was contemplating what to do, Lord's messenger appeared to him, not a moment too late or too early, so that Joseph could know the truth. God's way is always higher than our way, and His mind is always greater than our mind.

Are you anxious about something now? Are you complaining about something? Are you rushing to take care of some situation? Remember that our God will never make a mistake, and He is a punctual God! You can totally surrender everything to His hands, and God will personally make way for you in your life according to the wonders of His hands. He'll make way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. Just look upon Him and learn to enjoy rest in His working hands.
