Gospel Reflection
Hear Jesus’ words:
When you do a kindness,
hide from your left hand what your right is doing.
Your good deed must be secret.
Believe what Jesus says,
God is generous; God is good.
Gospel Reading - For all peoples
25That day a man named Simeon, a Jerusalem resident, was in the Temple. He was a good man, very devout, filled with the Holy Spirit and constantly expecting the Messiaha to come soon. 26For the Holy Spirit had revealed to him that he would not die until he had seen him — God’s anointed King. 27The Holy Spirit had impelled him to go to the Temple that day; and so, when Mary and Joseph arrived to present the baby Jesus to the Lord in obedience to the law, 28Simeon was there and took the child in his arms, praising God.
29-31“Lord,” he said, “now I can die content! For I have seen him as you promised me I would. I have seen the Savior you have given to the world. 32He is the Light that will shine upon the nations, and he will be the glory of your people Israel!”
. . . . .Luke 2:25-32- literally, “the Consolation of Israel.”
The Lord's Prayer
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
now and for ever.
Amen.
