The angel had told Mary that her cousin, Elizabeth, was going to have a baby and that she was in her sixth month of pregnancy. Mary thought, “If I go and help Elizabeth, I won’t have to tell Joseph that I’m pregnant and the people of Nazareth won’t find out.” Many thoughts went through her mind as she made the trip of nearly a hundred miles. “Will Elizabeth be happy to see me? What will she say when she finds out I’m pregnant?” As soon as she met Elizabeth, she received her answer. Elizabeth said, “My baby leaped for joy, in my womb, when we met.” [Reflection is based on the Bible Reference – Luke 1:39-45]
