Luke 1

Read Luke 1 slowly, once or twice. Then sit with this:

Zechariah doubted and fell silent; Mary questioned and said yes. Somewhere between them is your own response to God's promise. Speak it to him honestly today.

Three questions for the group

1. Read Luke 1 aloud, slowly. Which word or phrase stays with you?
2. Who has been an Elizabeth for you, recognizing God's work in you before you could put it into words?
3. Whom could you greet that way?

Questions 2 and 3 are personal: share only what you want to share.

Close with a minute of silence, then pray in your own words.
