MELC Weekend Reminder, Dec 21, 2012

"...blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her by the Lord." - Elizabeth, Luke 21:45

George Bailey's Mary loved him partly because of his faith in impossible odds, that economic good could triumph over economic evil in Bedford Falls. Elizabeth recognizes that her cousin Mary is blessed, not because of her virginity or purity or holiness, but because she believed God's promises were true. Be blessed to believe in God's promises with us, this Sunday!
