Zechariah when he entered the temple to offer incense-worship meets the angel Gabriel whose message marks the beginning of a totally different lifestyle not only for Zechariah but also for his whole family. That morning as he entered the sanctuary, I'm sure he certainly did not expect to see the angel or get a vision.
Most of us stroll through life totally oblivious of the numerous ways and means through which God calls on us. We are either too busy after something we have set our minds to or are too lazy to hear and ultimately respond. God constantly interacts with us in the little and big things of life. The more we are attuned to this, the richer our life will be, constantly transforming and growing into a better image. Just like Zechariah whose life undergoes a major shift on encountering the angel and God's message, so too is our life bound to change when we become attentive to the encounters we have with God!
