In those days Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a town in Judah, and she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, and she exclaimed with a loud cry, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

Prophecy fulfilled. And a demonstration that the Spirit brings recognition between His people. I'm sure that Mary and Elizabeth recognized each other and had met before, but something new and precious had been added to their relationship. I've had that happen, sometimes acknowledging the ties and profiting thereby, but sometimes not. This unwillingness is often usually to my regret that I did not enter into the gift offered.
