Expectation
 

Expectation by Alive to God

Be expectant! To be able to be expectant we need to be God-orientated. Nothing is too hard for God! Expect God to come through for you. Get hold of the promises again. Begin to read them and believe them.

As an expectant lady would begin to make the arrangements for the child, so we must be expectant and do what we can to prepare for what God has got for us. It may well be that something has been conceived within us and we need to give it a chance to develop and grow. But the promise is there! God has a plan for each one of us, no matter how we feel.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Like the thought, I do trust my God to be there, but I don't expect Him to jump and say, "How high???" I find it better if I raise my acceptance and lower my expectations. As they say in AA, "Make plans but don't plan the outcome." My God and I aren't always on the same page and His time is so much different than mine.
