Hebrews 6:15
“Then Abraham waited patiently, and he received what God had promised.” (NLT)

Abraham stuck it out and got everything that had been promised to him. (The Message)

Children are, for the most part, not that great at waiting. Neither are most adults. 

Waiting for minutes, hours, days, weeks, years, or decades is tough. This is especially true for children awaiting Christmas morning. 

What are you awaiting? 

I have a couple of long-term prayer requests I repeatedly take to God. My trust in him has not wavered. He will do what only he can do, and he will do it in his timing. Until then, I will wait. 

Sometimes, I will wait confidently.

Other times, I will wait and wonder.

Still other times, I will wait and maybe kind of prod God along.

Waiting is not wasteful. I watch while I wait. I took for signs of God’s activity. I listen for evidence unseen. I pray and explain to God why His Greater Yes would be so very awesome at this moment. 

And still I wait. 

Abraham waited for a long, long time. God, eventually, did everything he promised, and more. Isn’t that just like God? He’s better to us than we would be to ourselves. 

Some things are worth the wait. And when they come to fruition, so will begin the joy and laughter that will echo through eternity.

Today, I wait. 

I wait, confident that a gift will be opened that will provide breathless surprise and endless delight. 

God’s still working. I’m still waiting. 

Something better than Christmas is coming. 

I will wait as I pray in faith.

Our Father, you know my deepest desire. I know your desire is like mine, only greater. I look forward to celebrating together as soon as possible and always and forever. Amen.

Daily D – Luke 1:76-79

Luke 1:76-79 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High;
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,
to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins,
because of the tender mercy of our God,
by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven
to shine on those living in darkness
and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the path of peace.
(NIV)

Daily D – John 20:24-28

John 20:24-28 Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”

But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”

A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”

Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”

Daily D – John 18:10-11

John 18:10, 11 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.) Jesus commanded Peter, “Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?”

Daily D – John 13:3-5

John 13:3-5 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

Daily D – John 11:6

John 11:6 “So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days, . . .”
