This feast Day and this story has got to make all of us think, how much is God a part of our lives every single day? We don’t all have to come to the Temple every day, like Simeon and Anna did. And yet shouldn’t there be some acknowledgement of God every day in our lives? God also has made promises to us, and we have made promises to Him. How can we remember those promises if we go on day after day without even thinking about God? This is why we’ve got to find some time for God every day in our lives. God wants us in communion with Him at all times. If Simeon and Anna decided not to go to the Temple that day when Mary and Joseph brought the child Jesus to the Temple, they would have missed out! We will miss out on a lot of great things, too, if we’re not there for God.
Adults: How do you acknowledge God in your daily life?
