JoyThe Holy Spirit

39 In those days Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judah,

40 where she entered the home of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.

When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

42 In a loud voice she exclaimed, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

43 And why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
