Worship in the Waiting

It seems we are always waiting for something.   When we are young we can’t wait until we get bigger to do bigger things.  Christmas seems to come ever so slowly.  We are waiting in line or in traffic. We can’t wait to get out of high school, college, or to get a job.  We are anxious to be successful, and then we are waiting to retire.  There is always something to wait for.  We really need to stop, relax and smell the roses and count our blessings along the way.

The only thing we really need to be waiting for is our Lord’s return.  I hope all of us are working so that all of our family and friends will be ready for His return.

May He truly bless you this Christmas season.

But those that wait for the Lord-
who expect  look for and hope in Him –
shall change and renew their strength and power;
they shall lift their wings and mount up
[close to God] as eagles
[mount up to the sun];
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint or become tired.
Isaiah 40:31

Billie Nielsen
