Smile!!!

Monday December 25th, Luke 1: 39 At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judea, 40 where she entered Zechariah's home and greeted Elizabeth. 41 When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. There are things beyond our understanding. How bumble bees fly, what gravity is, and how the Holy Spirit works. But in the womb, John knew and therefore so did Elizabeth and Mary. John, before birth, heralding the coming of the Messiah. Science may someday tackle the bumble bees and gravity, but the Spirit is always out there beyond our reach. When you sense beauty and love that makes your insides leap with joy, smile and know the spirit is with you. Smile and know the spirit is in the world. Smile and know the blessedness that surrounds you. Smile and pray. Smile as a prayer. Smile!!!!
