Daily Lectionary Reading: Psalm 85:8-13 (NRSV, The Message); Amos 4:6-13 (NRSV, The Message); Luke 1:57-80 (NRSV, The Message)
Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue freed, and he began to speak, praising God.
Luke 57:63 (NRSV)
Luke 57:63 (NRSV)
The daily lectionary today gives us a few moments in the advent section of the gospels and Zechariah's hymn of praise to God for Jesus and John the Baptist.
Zechariah had been struck mute, if you remember, for doubting that his wife Elizabeth was pregnant in his old age. Unfair? Maybe. Our tongues are loosened when we sing songs of praise. Lifting our voices in worship to God and/or in support of one another might feel a little strange at first and in certain circumstances. However, as we practice we find our voice and bring strength to those around us.
