"There was also a prophetess, Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, and then was a widow until she was eighty-four. She never left the temple but worshiped night and day, fasting and praying. Coming up to them at that very moment, she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child to all who were looking forward to the redemption of Jerusalem. There is nothing mentioned in the Bible about Anna being a mother However, this Prophetess worshipped day and night in the temple even after losing her husband and dealing with grief. She is important because she was an example to other mothers and women that time with God can heal brokenness."
