For unto us a
Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His
shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
- Isaiah 9:6 (NKJV)
There
is something about this season of waiting that feels different than any other
kind of waiting. We wait for packages to arrive, for travel plans to fall into
place, for family to gather—but Advent reminds us that God’s people waited for
something far greater. They waited for a Savior.
I think about how impatient I can be with the everyday stuff. Traffic lights feel too slow, checkout lines feel too long, and unanswered prayers feel unbearable at times. And yet, God works beautifully in the waiting. The world waited centuries for Jesus, and God’s timing was perfect.
Advent isn’t just about counting down to Christmas—it’s about training our hearts to wait with hope instead of frustration. Let's pray daily asking God to help us slow down and trust Him in the waiting. We need Him to teach us to wait with hope, not impatience. If God kept His promise then, He will keep His promise now.
