18Zechariah said to the angel, "How will I know that this is so?
For I am an old man, and my wife is getting on in years."
19The angel replied, "I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God,
have been sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news.
which will be fulfilled in their time, you will become mute, unable to speak,
until the day these things occur." (Luke 1:18-20)
The angel said to the priest:
“Watch in silence
these events that you
can not comprehend.
Go home to your beloved.
Lie with her
and let God’s story
start to unfold.”
Today‘s meditation:
Can we keep our unbelief as revealed
in thought, word and deed
silent?
