Mary's response to the Angel really teaches us about our responses to God. Most of us do not have any encounters with Angels, but He speaks to us in a variety of ways. The most common way that God speaks to us is from His Word. This happens when the Holy Spirit makes the Word of God alive to us. The Living Word of God sustains and guides us.
