Luke 1:39-45
I kept trying to find which verse in this passage best communicated the message I received from it. But the verses all work together. I am moved by Elizabeth’s words- as soon as she had heard Mary’s greeting, she was filled with the Holy Spirit. She knew, at that moment, Mary would bear a blessed son. Elizabeth was immediately filled with the Holy Spirit, just from hearing Mary’s voice. It was just Mary’s voice. I thought right away of Pastor Gil and how frustrated he must be with the English language. But the Holy Spirit speaks to us- through Pastor Gil. His words and voice guide us and help us to find our way, but it is the Holy Spirit that fills us with all we need. I have never felt closer to God, never wanted more to know Him than I want it now. I am so thankful for all of God’s blessings, including our pastor. Amen
