—Luke 2:36-38
by: Trisha Gerstel.
It is relatively easy to share the good news of Jesus Christ when everything in life is going great. The true test comes with the curveballs of life—the circumstances we did not see coming, and which knock us to the ground. When we have job troubles, financial issues, failing health, or struggling relationships, are we able to follow the example of Anna, a woman forced to live alone after losing her husband just seven years into their marriage? When faced with struggles, are we able to give thanks and tell of the One who was the “redemption of Jerusalem”?
