"The days are coming—oracle of the Lord—when I will fulfill the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah." Jeremiah 33: 14).
As Advent begins today, let us give some thought to the concept of Waiting and God's Faithfulness. What have you waited for in your life? What are you waiting for now? Use the Scripture from Lamentations below to enter into the spirit of Advent.
"The Lord’s acts of mercy are not exhausted, his compassion is not spent;
They are renewed each morning — great is your faithfulness! The Lord is my portion, I tell myself, therefore I will hope in him.
The Lord is good to those who trust in him, to the one that seeks him; It is good to hope in silence for the Lord’s deliverance."
(Lamentations 3: 22 - 26).
To hope in the Lord is to wait for the Lord.
I hope your heart will be warmed by the truth that God fulfills His promises in the fullness of time.
As we wait with expectant faith for God to fulfill His promises to us, we do well to take note of obstacles and barriers that may stand in our way.
"Jesus said to his disciples:
“Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise like a trap." (Luke 21: 34).
