As Advent draws to a close we hear the story of the Visitation. We can imagine Zachariah, who was mute during his wife Elizabeth's pregnancy, was forced to simply sit, be quiet, and listen during those nine months, during which time he was able to watch the Lord grow within his home, in the womb of Mary, and also within his heart, that what was spoken to him by the Lord might be fulfilled.
