ELIZABETH

Elizabeth was a woman of powerful personality and deep faith. She loved the Lord and followed His commandments. But one thing broke her heart - she could not have children and was past her childbearing years. But despite her age, the Lord gave her a miracle child, and that's only the half of it - the child was a great prophet who prepared people for the coming of the Messiah. Little did she know that that Messiah was being carried by her cousin, Mary. When the two pregnant women met, Elizabeth's son, John (who would become John the Baptist) leaped in her womb, his first act of proclaiming that Mary's Son Jesus was the Savior of the world. Elizabeth exclaimed in delight to Mary “you are the mother of my Lord!” Luke 1:5-24,39-45, 57-80.
