I have been absolutely fascinated with Anna in Luke 2:36-38. I’ve spent the last several weeks just meditating on her life, and allowing God to speak into my life through hers.

Just like Simeon was looking for the consolation of Israel; declaring Jesus to be our great consolation; Oh!! how I celebrate that everyday, that no matter what is happening around me, I have Jesus and He is my consolation; Anna was looking for and declaring Jesus to be the Redemption of Jerusalem.

Prov. 30:15 “There are three things that are never satisfied, four that never say, ‘Enough!’: Prov. 30:16 the grave, the barren womb, land, which is never satisfied with water, and fire, which never says, ‘Enough!’ The fourth thing that never says, ‘Enough,’ is fire.

Song 8:5 ¶ “Who is this coming up from the wilderness Leaning on her beloved?” This is one of my favorite verses because it is so relevant to one lives. There are a number things that I believe it is important to notice. First, the wilderness is a reality, and all of us have to
