Ana, profetisa… no se apartaba del templo, sirviendo de noche y de día con ayunos y oraciones… y hablaba del niño a todos los que esperaban la redención en Jerusalén.
Lucas 2:36-38
Hablar de Jesús
La Palabra de Dios nos dice que Jesús "a lo suyo vino, y los suyos no le recibieron. Mas a todos los que le recibieron… les dio potestad de ser hechos hijos de Dios" (Juan 1:11-12). Ana, una mujer muy anciana, formaba parte del pequeño número de aquellos que esperaban al Señor, aquellos a quienes God reveals His secrets through His Word. She had understood that the Messiah was near. Served as a prophetess in the temple with fasting and prayers night and day, and with the conviction that Scripture gives spoke of Christ to all who looked for redemption. I rejoiced when they lived on the good news was announced: "To you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord!" (Luke 2:11).
In today's Christians are asked a similar attitude. Jesus says: "I will come again and receive you unto myself" (John 14:3). In other words, the Lord Jesus will come to look at all those who believed in him, to be with him forever. Not the most beautiful message that remind us as Christians to actually expect his return?
happy is also inviting all those who suffer, to sigh and still have no hope! With strength and certainty, but also with the insistence of love, we say: the Lord is coming soon. Accept His grace today while there is still time!
