Anna praises God in the Temple and speaks of the Child to everyone

Anna praises God in the Temple and speaks of the Child to everyone
The Sixth Day in the Octave of Christmas
Gospel text
Lk 2:36-40
There was also a prophetess, Anna (...). She never left the temple, but worshiped night and day with fasting and prayer. And coming forward at that very time, she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child to all who were awaiting the redemption of Jerusalem.
Gospel's Commentary
Today we are still in the Temple of Jerusalem. After Simeon, another old person discovers Jesus-Savior. It seems that She and Simeon have a special nose for finding God. That’s a Holy Spirit thing. - Whenever you want, the Virgin gives you the Baby Jesus. It's not difficult: go to the church and there you will find Them!
