When the angel Gabriel visited Mary to tell her about her future son, Jesus, she immediately accepted the news, “Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.” (Luke 1:38). Zechariah, on the other hand, needed more proof, saying, “How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years.” (Luke 1:18)
