Greig Garratt - As we study the greatest announcement, we must accept the essential spiritual fact of the Incarnation and the gospel: the Lord comes to needy people – (1) those who realise that without Him they cannot make it – (2) those who acknowledge their weakness and spiritual lack. As we follow the story of the greatest announcement, we will catch the pulse of Mary’s heart because she is a model for those who experience the birth of the Saviour in their lives.
