God Fulfills

Read Luke 2:25-35
Key Verse: 20: Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, you now dismiss your servant in peace.

Again we see Jesus’ parents fulfilling the laws and customs of their people, and also by God’s great good pleasure also fulfilling His promise to Simeon, an elderly and devout Jew.  God’s promise – that Simeon would see the Lord’s Christ before he died – has come to pass.

Prayer: Lord, May we always remember that You keep your promises.  Thank you.
