Reflection on Luke 2:22-
As we read through Luke’s gospel, we are reminded of the importance of prayer. In particular, we are reminded of the importance of prayer for our children.
In Luke 2:22-40, we see the birth of Jesus Christ. Mary and Joseph were very excited to bring their son into the world. They went to Bethlehem to register for the census, and while they were there, the angel of the Lord appeared to them and told them that their son was going to be the Messiah.

When they arrived in Egypt, they were able to keep the promise they made to God. They also showed great faith in Him when they were faced with danger. Even though they were in a difficult situation, they never gave up on God. This is an example for all of us to follow.
Simeon’s Prophecy
In the Bible, Simeon prophesied about Jesus Christ. In Luke 2:22-40, we read about how Jesus was born to a virgin and was baptized by John the Baptist. Simeon praised God for this event and said that Jesus would be a sign that God was truly interested in people. Jesus fulfilled Simeon’s prophecy by performing many miracles and teaching people about God’s love.
Anna’s Worship
Anna’s worship was very important to her. She would often spend hours in prayer, praising God for all the blessings He had given her. In Luke 2:22-40, we see Anna following in the footsteps of her mother and worshiping God in a special way.

Obedience to God’s Will
obedience to God’s will is the key to a happy life. In Luke 2:22-40, we see the story of Jesus’ birth. Mary and Joseph were obedient to God’s will and were rewarded with a happy life. We can learn from their example and be obedient to God’s will, too.
Trusting in God’s Promises
It can be difficult to trust in God’s promises, especially when we feel like we have been let down in the past. However, we can learn to trust in God by looking at the example of Jesus. In Luke 2:22-40, we see Jesus’ trust in God as He is born in a manger. Despite the fact that Herod and his soldiers were looking for Jesus, God protected Him and allowed Him to grow up in a humble and peaceful environment. Jesus also trusts in God when He is tempted by the devil in the wilderness. Despite the temptation, Jesus trusts in God’s promise that He will be with Him always. Finally, Jesus trusts in God when He dies on the cross. By trusting in God, we can learn to have faith in the future and be prepared for anything.
Worshiping God in All Circumstances
When we come to worship God, we should do so in all circumstances. In the passage from Luke 2, we see a beautiful example of how to do this. When Mary and Joseph were traveling to Bethlehem, they were met by an angel who told them that they were going to have a baby. They were overjoyed at this news and went to tell their friends. When they got to Bethlehem, they found that there was no room in the inn. The angel told them to go to a nearby hill and worship God. They did as they were told and were filled with joy when they saw the baby Jesus. Mary and Joseph were worshiping God in all circumstances.
The conclusion of this devotional is that we should always be looking for ways to serve others. We should be looking to help others, and we should be doing what we can to make their lives better. This is a great reminder to always be looking out for others, and to do what we can to make their lives better.
