The textual content learn: “Whenever you get off the airplane there might be a cheering committee ready for you!”
Wow, now that’s a thought, and fairly an image, for that matter. I want there was a cheering committee in every single place I went. Wouldn’t that be enjoyable?
I knew, although, this was a singular time. I used to be the final one to reach to a particular metropolis amongst a gaggle of different girls who acquired there earlier. They have been ready for me. My airplane arrived an hour or so later. After I acquired there, we might all jet off in a rental automobile. It was sort of them to attend for me. They didn’t must. I may have ridden solo.
However they did. Their ready honored me. It valued me. It confirmed me they trusted that my airplane would arrive and that we might all completely make our approach, collectively.
Ready, largely, is trusting. It’s religion that claims: this particular person is coming. And I belief them to do this.
Once we wait on God, we belief Him. Once we say He’ll present up though His timing feels a day overdue, we honor Him. Once we say, completely He’ll arrive, we worth His character of faithfulness.
There is just one factor God may be: trustworthy.
He could present up another way than we expect. Simply as I could present up and look completely different than these new pals anticipated – or I could must make them wait slightly extra on the baggage carousel – typically God exhibits up in another way.
He’s the Maker of Heaven and Earth; He has each proper to do that.
Both approach, we are able to financial institution on this: His plan is the very best for us!
What would it not seem like for us to attend with pleasure? With anticipation? With thankfulness?
Certainly, God is coming! At all times, Jesus exhibits up! Victory can’t be taken from Him!
“Those that wait on the Lord will renew their power.” (Isa 40:31)
This verse is true as a result of whereas ready feels excruciating, the enjoyment of His coming is exhilarating.
“Take coronary heart! Christ has overcome the world!” (Jo 16:33) He not solely has the entire world in His arms, but in addition what you’re ready for!
Prayer: Father, you could have a superb plan for me. Your timing is ideal. I ask you to present me the power to attend and to belief you. I ask that I can wait in a approach the place I’m stuffed with pleasure, reward and hope. I need to honor you with all my coronary heart, thoughts, and soul. In Jesus’ title. Amen.
