LUKE 1.39-45
Gabriel had informed Mary that one of her older relatives, Elizabeth, was going to have a baby as well. Mary went to visit Elizabeth and her husband Zechariah, who lived in Judea. When Mary arrived at Elizabeth’s house, the baby in Elizabeth’s womb leaped for joy! This baby was, of course, John the Baptist. Elizabeth immediately recognized that God had chosen Mary for a special role. She called Mary the mother of the Lord, and pronounced a blessing on Mary. Mary must have been greatly reassured by Elizabeth’s response to her arrival.
