His Name is John

Jubilation at the naming of his baby boy, the boy born in his old age, the child he thought he would never have. No wonder Zechariah was filled with thankfulness for God. he had been the first person that God had told about this plan. He had scoffed at the idea so much so that God had given him a sign, the sign of a no voice from the announcement of the plan until this day. Imagine Zechariah going home and explaining to Elizabeth that he could not speak because God had spoken to him and they were going to have a child. God had spoken to him! Yes, of course I believe you! Elizabeth came round after she was pregnant, she supported the idea of the out of family name, John.
Now Zechariah speaks. His will is at one with God's will. He is filled with the Holy Spirit.
May my will be aligned with yours O Lord. May I hear your promptings and act upon them.

My friend believes we had a minor miracle with a Russian doll with 10 babies for her grandaughter.
