Anna Gives Thanks For Jesus
36 Anna was a woman who spoke God's Word. She was the daughter of Phanuel of the family group of Asher. Anna was many years old. She had lived with her husband seven years after she was married. 37 Her Husband had died and she had lived without a husband eighty-four years. Yet she did not go away from the house of God. She worked for God day and night, praying and going without food so she could pray better. 38 At that time she came and gave thanks to God. She told the people in Jerusalem about Jesus. They were looking for the One to save them from the penalty of their sins and to set them free.
