Wait with Jesus



Some may feel disappointed, discouraged or even depressed after this year’s election results, however Corrie ten Boom writes:


“We know that the whole creation has been groaning in travail together until now” (Rom. 8:22 RSV).

                        The restless millions wait
                        The coming of the Lord to make all things new.
                        Christ also waits.
                        But men are slow and few.
                        Have we done all we could?
                        Have I? Have you?


Thank you, Lord, that we know from the Bible that the crisis we experience in this time is the suffering you told about when you said that we must look up because our liberation is approaching (see Luke 21).

Let us look up to Jesus. For only in Him will we experience true change.



Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,  (John 3:14)
