Luke 1:  19 The angel said to him, ‘I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news.'

Gabriel has come to tell Zechariah of the good news. Elizabeth will bear a son in her old age. Zechariah finds this hard to believe, and Gabriel mutes him until the child is born and named John, in accordance with the Lord's words spoken by Gabriel. 

I'm interested in the appearance of the angel and all the other ways God speaks to us. It's so hard for people to believe, even when it happens to them. We live every day in a world we can understand, so we are disbelieving when something so out of the ordinary happens. 

Prayer:  Lord, I long to hear Your voice speaking to me. I want to know Your will in my life. Be there for me and for those I love. 
Amen
