Awaiting the Arrival of the Appointed
Bible Text: Luke 2:22-38 | Preacher: Curtis Lai | In our passage this week, Luke provides us with the account of two individuals that encountered Jesus early on in His life on Earth. Both of these individuals devoted their lives to God and were eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Messiah. And both rejoiced following their encounters with Him. As we look through the lives of these two witnesses to Christ, we are reminded of the value and joy that Jesus alone brings us. And in recognizing that, we are also empowered to proclaim Him boldly to those around us. These are truths that ought to anchor us as we go through this season of advent leading up to Christmas.
