I have a heroine found on the pages of the New Testament...
“Now there was one, Anna... this woman was a widow of about eighty-four years, who did not depart from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.”
Luke 2:36-37
Think about it. Anna could have missed her divine appointment with the Christ child. She could have set her own day’s agenda, doing what she thought best, ignoring the voice of the Holy Spirit leading her.
Instead, she lived sold out for and totally in love with God. She was faithful to the ministry He had called her to even when no one probably noticed or knew her name. And... most certainly she knew Him intimately. She knew His still, small voice leading her throughout her seemingly ordinary days.
Oh. To be like Anna...
Because if we are faithful and obedient to the Lord in the little things, we will be in the right place at the right time for His big things.
