This is my favorite painting of the Annunciation by Henry Ossawa Tanner. Can you imagine what Mary felt like when the angel Gabriel came to see her? From Luke 1:26-33.

First, I’ll wave it under the tree and presents will appear. Then, I’ll wave it over the presents I have already purchased and they will be wrapped beautifully. Then
