When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the child leaped in her womb. — Luke 1:41
I would probably say that John leaping in his mother’s womb is probably the most famous leap in the Bible.
And we all know Neil Armstrong’s “Giant Leap For Mankind.”
But I had never heard of probably the most important leap in human history.
I came across it’s prediction recently in the Wisdom of Solomon. It was written way back then:
“For while gentle silence enveloped all things, and the night in its swift course was now half gone, your all-powerful word leaped from heaven, from the royal throne.” (Wisdom of Solomon 18:14-15).
For the next few days we will all celebrate truly the real giant leap for mankind. When God “leaped” down from heaven to become a part of us.
And like the child in Elizabeth’s womb it is our turn to follow suit and leap for joy. Merry Christmas!
