Almost every person involved in the Christmas story had been in some point of pressure. For Zachariah, it was his job as a priest. For Mary, it was her betrothal. For Joseph, it was cultural expectations. For the wisemen, it was obedience to a king. But we need to look at what they each decided to do when the Lord gave them a word to guide them and give them direction. Was it to continue in confusion? Was it to let their feelings dictate their actions? Or was it to lay those feelings aside and trust and love God enough to take Him at His word? Find yourself in the Christmas story, if you are facing pressure from your job, your marriage, your finances, your health, or something else that is applying pressure. God wants to carry some of that weight for you.
