Mary Did You Know?

December 5, 2023
Devotional by: Tripp & Townes Pittman (and Mom)

Mary, did you know that your baby boy
Is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
Would one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy
Is heaven's perfect Lamb?
That sleeping child you're holding is the great, I Am

We listen to this song on repeat during the Christmas season—the Pentatonix version, of course. At this point, the boys know that every time I turn it on, I will inevitably cry my eyes out. As a momma, it gets me every single time. As a pastor, it’s a reminder of Who I serve. That being said, it has become a favorite and here is what Tripp and Townes had to say about it….

Tripp: “I like this song because it surprises you… it’s like ‘Wow.’ It helps me remember that Jesus was someone’s son and that He really did all of those things! I don’t really think of Jesus as being a baby but I guess He really was!”

Townes: “I just really like the song. It makes me think about Jesus and that He and God are always with me, even when I have to do scary things. It also reminds me that Mary was a mom just like you’re a mom.”
