Anticipation Gift- Advent 23
Waiting with excitement.
And wonderment of the
possibilities.
Mary knew something supernatural
was in the works.
Her life would never be the same.
Would she have waited with such anticipation
if she knew the sad ending of the story?
Her time in the world would be such a small piece
of what we know now.
"The Lord himself will give you a sign.
Look, the young woman
is with child and shall bear a son
and shall name him Immanuel."
Isaiah 7:14
When we are surrounded by loving
and supportive family and friends,
it is often easier to look
to the future with anticipation.
When we find ourselves alone,
or feelings of loneliness surround us-
even when there are people nearby,
the future may seem almost painful.
Lord, we ask you to be with us in
our anticipation- that it may be a
blessing no matter our circumstances.
