Read Luke 2:25-35
“For my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all nations: a light for revelation to the Gentiles and the glory of your people Israel.” v. 30-32
Simeon was responsive to the Holy Spirit and moved when prompted to recognize Jesus — He was waiting for “the consolation of Israel.”
Lord I’m thankful for the grace of knowing you. Give me more grace that I may I recognize you in the comings and goings of my day. Move me by your Spirit as you moved Simeon.
In Jesus Name,
Amen
