eager expectation

Opening Prayer: How will we wait for you during this season, O Lord?  It is such a key question.  Search out hearts, this day, so that we can give you an honest answer to that question.  Give us the strength and the courage and the grace to wait for you in eager expectation.  Amen.

Scripture: Romans 8:19

Journal: How are you waiting on the Lord these days?  What are the characteristics of that waiting?  What does that say about what you truly believe about God?

Reflection: “The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed.” (Romans 8:19)

How will we wait for you during this season, O Lord?  Will we wait in sadness and sorrow?  Will we wait in anxiety and insecurity?  Will we wait in frustration and impatience?  Or will we wait—as you instructed us to—in eager expectation?  For how we wait tells us so much about what we truly believe to be true about you.

Prayer

Closing Prayer: Help us, O Lord, to wait in eager expectation.  Help us to wait, trusting in your goodness and overwhelmed by your love.
