-purpose is impt
-purpose will guide us
-have a vision or revelation from God
-the angel first encourage Mary to don't give up.. highly favored
-though she has the favor from God, this doesn't excuse her from suffering
-when we have the vision of Jesus our life, it will empower us to stop looking at our limitations and start to see the possibility of the impossible
-to Joseph, the angel is very direct
-when we see the purpose, we will be able to endure the suffering
what is getting a vision of Jesus?
-have a image of what Jesus has done for us.. and it will inspire us... if Jesus has done it for us, we can
1. what Jesus has become of our behalf-though 2 wives, it's not right to God.. those with more than 1 wife has a miserable life
Hannah picks herself up
Hannah prayed
God willingly give us all things
after Hannah prayed, she is no longer downcast
-she prayed and bargained but not answered
-he prayed, obtained peace then prayer is answered
whether Hannah's prayer is answered, it doesn't matter anymore
2. seeing what Jesus has done for us
-put our faith in God
-it's impt to work hard... but not pressured to perform tt if doesn't meet targets, we will lose faith
-God came in physical appearance as a smoking brazier with a blazing torch
-God did it for Abraham
-God is willing to be cut up like the animals
-it's Jesus being the lamb being slain
-it's not dependent on our performance
-it's in our enjoyment tt God turns things ard... not suffering
-learn to put our trust in God
-enjoy life and do our best
