Good Friday
the day when we remember the wait....
how could it be?
Jesus....on a cross?
God, are you going to show up?
how much longer?
how much longer?
everything silent
still
dark
Jesus' friends weeping
and wondering
and waiting
our family is in a season of waiting right now
dreaming with God
KNOWING that He has something miraculous in store....
and although it is hard,
we are closer to His heart than ever before
there is something sweet in this difficult time of waiting
wondering
watching
we are praying with new passion
asking with great expectancy
remembering that we are a RESURRECTION people
people of the promise
people who KNOW that the painful wait of labor eventually gives way to new life
we're trying to be still....to hear His voice....
choosing to be happy for the miracles we see happening for others
KNOWING that He hasn't forgotten His promise
waiting
still
dark
Jesus' friends weeping
and wondering
and waiting
our family is in a season of waiting right now
dreaming with God
KNOWING that He has something miraculous in store....
and although it is hard,
we are closer to His heart than ever before
there is something sweet in this difficult time of waiting
wondering
watching
we are praying with new passion
asking with great expectancy
remembering that we are a RESURRECTION people
people of the promise
people who KNOW that the painful wait of labor eventually gives way to new life
we're trying to be still....to hear His voice....
choosing to be happy for the miracles we see happening for others
KNOWING that He hasn't forgotten His promise
waiting
and remembering that God is unchanging...
what was true on the cross over 2000 years ago is true for us today:
when God says "wait", it just means that He's getting ready to show up.
