What are we waiting for?  Do we expect God to do something in our life?  Anything?  Sunday we will find the true essence of hope – waiting!  Simeon and Anna are two who waited – long and despite so many obstacles.  Heaven had grown silent – about 400 years since Malachi.  The Romans were cruel and pagan – Herod killing many babies to eliminate the ‘myth’ of the Messiah.  The Religious were in doubt and skepticism – so that when the Wise Men asked the verses of Micah seemed forgotten.  With different names I could be talking about today!  Join us Sunday as we listen in to the presentation of the newborn Jesus at the Temple with the meager offerings and meet, maybe the last two on earth – faithful servants of the true and living God!  Simeon and Anna will encourage you with their hope – there is enough to go around – come and get some hope – what are you waiting for?
