God’s good news often arrives in surprising ways—overturning our assumptions about who God uses and how he works. In Luke 1, Gabriel is sent not to the powerful or impressive, but to Mary, an ordinary, overlooked young woman. Through her, God reveals an extraordinary gospel—rooted in promise, not performance. Mary’s humble, trusting response contrasts unbelief and models faith that seeks understanding. Her song magnifies the Lord, showing how grace produces joyful worship, deep humility, and confidence that nothing is impossible with God, who exalts the lowly and saves by grace through faith.
