Luke 2:36-40, There was also a prophetess, Anna, the daughter of
Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher; she was of a great age, having lived with her
husband seven years from her virginity, 37 and as a widow till she was
eighty-four. She did not depart from the temple, worshiping with fasting and
prayer night and day. 38 And coming up at that very hour she gave thanks
to God and spoke of him to all who were looking for the redemption of
Jerusalem. 39 And when they had performed everything according to the law of
the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth. 40 And
the child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God was
upon him. USCCB video: https://youtu.be/j2NFFlcgSh0?list=PLpTzvCOJa7DAAsw34PxZGDqnI_bBKNWa9

the world’s attractions: The world passes; God alone remains.
Photographer David Crocket of KOMO-TV, Seattle, was
caught at the foot of Mt. St. Helens when it exploded on May 18, 1980. He was
nearly buried in the falling ash. Ten hours later he was miraculously spotted,
picked up by a helicopter, and rushed to a hospital. After the ordeal Crocket
wrote in Guideposts: “During
those ten hours I saw a mountain fall apart.
I saw a forest disappear. . . .I saw that God is the only one who is immovable.
. . .I feel somehow that I’m being allowed to start over . . .whatever is in
his master plan for me.”

We praise You for Your unequalled greatness.
