Luke 1 · Grade 4
Nothing Is Impossible with God
Read and Think
Luke wrote his book so that people could know for sure that the things about Jesus are true. He begins with an old priest named Zechariah and his wife Elizabeth. They loved God, but they had never been able to have children. Zechariah was serving in the temple. The angel Gabriel told him that Elizabeth would have a son named John. John would turn many people back to God.
Zechariah doubted, so he could not speak until the promise came true. Then Gabriel visited Mary, a young woman in Nazareth who was engaged to Joseph. He said she would have a baby named Jesus. By the Holy Spirit's power, He would be the Son of God. Mary was troubled at first, but she trusted God and said she was His servant.
Mary visited Elizabeth, and Elizabeth's baby leaped for joy. Mary sang a song praising God for His mercy. When John was born, Zechariah could speak again. He praised God for keeping His promises and sending a Savior.
