Psalm: 148
Meditation: Luke
Even the naming of John the Baptist did not come without controversy and a miracle. John’s father had been mute since the visit of the angel. It was only when he acknowledged the boy’s name(John) would God give him back the ability to speak. Witnesses to these events were filled with awe and reverence at what had transpired. The father would then prophecy what the important role this child had.
