Luke 1:5-10

The Birth of John the Baptist Foretold

⁵ In the time of Herod king of Judea there was a priest named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah; his wife Elizabeth was also a descendant of Aaron. ⁶ Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, observing all the Lord’s commands and decrees blamelessly. ⁷ But they were childless because Elizabeth was not able to conceive, and they were both very old.

⁸ Once when Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God, ⁹ he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to go into the temple of the Lord and burn incense. ¹⁰ And when the time for the burning of incense came, all the assembled worshipers were praying outside.

 

Ultimately, the account of Zechariah and Elizabeth serves as a poignant reminder of God’s faithfulness and the significance of unwavering faith in the midst of adversity. It encourages readers to trust in God’s timing, to remain steadfast in their devotion, and to hold onto hope, knowing that God sees and honors their faithfulness. The narrative of Zechariah and Elizabeth stands as a testament to the enduring truth that God is intimately involved in the lives of His people, bringing forth blessings and miracles in ways that surpass human understanding.

Christmas Around the House

We had some errands in Deer Park today, on the way home we passed by Gringo's and decided to stop and enjoy some Mexican food. It was nice to get out of the house for a while.  Later Tammy came for a short visit, it's always great to see her.

Blessings to All

Until Next Time
