Elizabeth, Zechariah's wife, is transported into heaven to Prayer Central where standing in line many await the answers to their prayers. Before Elizabeth's turn a little boy faces an angel who grants him his request and gives him a drum to play music for the coming king. Elizabeth wants a child of her own and is moved by the presence of the little boy. Next in line are three men who desire to find the special child that will be born. One of the gentlemen is saddened by the thought of bringing myrrh as a gift to the king. He and his comical companions, after agreeing to their assignments, are given their wish. Among the group of those waiting for answers is a humorous curmudgeon-like shepherd and Elizabeth. The shepherds is promised what he desires, to be recognized in a special way. Finally bringing about the surprise element is Mary, who does not have a request but comes to give herself to God for anything He has for her to do. The angel at the window finishes the story with the question, "Anything?"
