One needs to be careful not to make Mary something she was not as many do. But one must also be careful not to take away from Mary what she was. She was one willing to walk in the will of God, walk according to the Word of the Lord. (Verse 38) Great things happen when one make a decision to walk according to the will of God, walk according to His Word. In the Bible we find that the way of cleansing is found according to they word. (Ps 119:9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.) The way of life is found according to thy word. (Ps 119:41 Let thy mercies come also unto me, O Lord, even thy salvation, according to thy word.) Comfort is found according to thy word. (Ps 119:76 Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant.) Understanding comes according to thy word. (Ps 119:169 Let my cry come near before thee, O Lord: give me understanding according to thy word.) And deliverance comes according to thy word. (Ps 119:170 Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word.) How wise one is when they make a determination to walk according to thy word.
