Luke 1:34 ” How can this be, Mary asked the angel, since I am a virgin?”

Elizabeth was the wife of Zechariah. She was old and barren. But the angel of the Lord came to Zechariah and announced that Elizabeth would have a son. Six months later that very angel visited Mary and told her the same mind-boggling news. When Mary asked the angel how this could happen he told her of Elizabeth and stated,”For nothing is impossible with God.” Luke then states that Mary got ready and hurried to the hill country of Judea to Elizabeth’s home. Why? This shell-shocked young pregnant teenager needed answers to questions, and Elizabeth was the very best person to answer them. Only Elizabeth could relate to what was happening to Mary, and God knew that only Elizabeth and her wisdom could prepare Mary for the path ahead. The Lord will bring Marys into your life also…searching young people who need you to share your grace, mercy, love, but most importantly your Godly wisdom with them. You will be the very best person to answer their questions. Be that Elizabeth to them.
