The Gospel According to the Women Who Waited - Anna: The Prophet Who Recognized the Light

Some prophets shouted from mountaintops. Anna prayed in the shadows. When the Gospel of Luke introduces her, it’s almost as a footnote - a widow, 84 years old, living in the temple, fasting and praying night and day. But that’s exactly where God chose to reveal redemption: not in palaces, not to priests, but to an elderly woman who had been waiting her whole life to see salvation.
