Inevitably, life surprises us with events, circumstances, or curveballs we didn’t plan. These events can be opportunities for us to learn, grow, and experience life in a way we might never have chosen on our own. As a teenager, Mary gets a surprise visit from an angel telling her that she will bear a son, though still a virgin. Surprise! What can we learn from Mary’s response to the angel?

Finding the perfect gift can feel elusive. It has to be a surprise, can’t break the bank, needs to be memorable years down the road, fit perfectly, not wear out, or go out of fashion. The more people on our list, the more impossible gift-giving can become. Maybe that’s why we get gift receipts with everything we buy. It’s like a built-in "I’m sorry" for a gift that falls flat. How is God’s Christmas gift to us different?
