Blessed

" Mary arose and went with hast to the hill country, to a city of Judah, and entered the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth. And it came about that when Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. And she cried out with a loud voice, and said, "Blessed among women are you, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!"
Luke 1:39-42

Good Day Raeann :) I am so loving these verses that everyone is posting about our dear Lord and Savior. Isn't it interesting that when the Lord sends a message, His children act in 'haste". What a blessed reminder for us to show Him haste when He speaks to us and to be excited as Mary was :)

Have a blessed day my friend!

Love,
Sharon

Our pastor spoke about this just yesterday. And I am amazed everytime I read it, how excited Elizabeth must have been to feel the baby inside her womb at her age!

What a miracle indeed !!!

Thank you dear friend for sharing.
