Is it really Impossible ?
From a mortal perspective, it was impossible. A virgin could not
conceive. Nor could a barren woman who was well past child-bearing
years. But God had a plan for the birth of His Son and of John the
Baptist, so both Mary and Elisabeth, against all earthly odds, became
mothers. It can be helpful to remember their miraculous experiences
whenever we face something that seems impossible. Can we overcome our
weaknesses? Can we touch the heart of an unresponsive family member?
Gabriel could easily have been speaking to us when he reminded Mary,
“With God nothing shall be impossible” (Luke 1:37). And Mary’s response can also be ours when God reveals His will: “Be it unto me according to thy word” (Luke 1:38).
