## The presentation of our Lord in the temple
+ Do I purify myself regularly so as to be reconciled with God? Do I prepare myself before each Eucharistic celebration?
+ Do I consecrate myself to Jesus? Do I perform acts of consecration? Little sacrifices, acts of mercy towards others?
+ Have I stayed awake faithful to the Lord our God, awaiting His coming? Have I done my priestly duties of reconciling people with God? Have I done my prophetic duties of sharing His Word? Singing His praises?
+ Do I share the wisdom and knowledge given to me by God with His people?
+ Through faithful, love, service and sacrifice may I be granted a chance to look upon the face of Christ as Saint Simeon and Saint Anna did. Amen
