What Are You Waiting For?

Expectation is the word of the month! Can I get an "amen", an "uh, huh" or an "oh, my!"? Especially in our house as we await the arrival of our granddaughter who is “due” today!!!

Chris, along with many other Star Wars fans, has been anxiously awaiting the premiere of the new movie today. Chris has taken our son, Josiah, to every opening night as he grew up (even a school night). It has made for some very sweet memories. Currently, our son has a weekly podcast (“Force Sports Podcast”) that is hosting a premier night at a local theater and thanks to collection of air points, Chris is in Kentucky now to enjoy this night with him.

Children are innocently anticipating Christmas morning. Students are working through finals and projects. In the air you can just FEEL it: music, anticipation, stress, joy, desperation, hope, peace and love. Can you feel it?

We sure hope you are experiencing all the good gifts this season holds. It’s so easy to find yourself lost in the hustle and bustle of it all. We know that many of you are walking through what seems the hardest season of your life right now. If any of you find yourself feeling “unnoticed, unseen or even forgotten” please take a moment to read this short devotional and be reminded “Your life matters and others are observing you to see if you reflect the faith you say you believe and the God whose name you claim.”: http://livehopedevos.blogspot.com/2016/12/the-unsung-hero-of-advent.html

"A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices. For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn. Fall on your knees. Oh hear the angel voices. Oh night divine. Oh night when Christ was born. Oh night, oh night, oh night. Oh night divine" 

Long ago, people were waiting and watching a star for a Savior, the Savior of the world. What are you waiting for? Let us know. Comment below! We'll let you know when this precious babe arrives.
