—Luke 1:57-66
by: Gabrielle Watt.
As Gabriel said it would happen, Elizabeth and Zechariah had a baby boy, those who heard about the baby were joyful, and Zechariah was still mute. Then, Zechariah was given an opportunity to exercise his faith. When he was asked what he would like to name his son, he wrote that his son’s name was John, in full recognition that it was not his decision to make, because God had already named his son. God then opened Zechariah’s mouth and the first thing he did was to praise God. Other than God always keeping His promises, there is a major takeaway: If you are alive, it is not too late to have faith.
