Advent Devotional December 19th

Today's Advent reading and devotional are out of Luke 2:22-40, looking at the prophecies of Simeon and Anna.

Tuesday, December 19th family discussion questions:

How does it feel to wait for something?

Parents, talk through the feeling of waiting with your kids. Is it hard? Easy? How does it feel when we have to wait longer?

How could we wait like Anna did in our verses?

Talk through what made Anna’s waiting different from our normal attitude. Is it trust in the person or thing we wait for? Is it a promise from someone trustworthy? Talk through how we can wait like Anna did, with trust and praise for God in our waiting.
