Grace, Hope & Peace, Friend;

While Zachariah, a priest, was performing his priestly service, in the temple, an  angel appeared beside the altar, and, seeing his fear, said, "Don't be afraid, Zachriah, God has heard your prayers and your wife, Elizabeth will bear you a son and you will name him John. you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice over his birth." (Luke 1:5-14)

When Zachariah asked the angel, "How will I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is advanced in her years." the angel answered, "I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God, and I was sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news." (Vs. 18-19)

When Daniel was confused about one of his visions, it was Gabriel who God sent to explain the vision to him. (Daniel 8:16) Even though His thoughts and actions are far superior ours in every way, God wants humanity to understand Him! (Isaiah 55:9-11) So He sends messengers to speak for Him.

Today, we are His messengers!

He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation."
	Mark 16:15

We have been sent to bring God's good news to the world.

Boreh Ketzot HaAretz - Creator of the ends of the earth - Open my ears and loosen my tongue to share Your message plainly

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.
	Psalm 19:14

Share His good news,
