OUR GREAT EXPECTATION

Psalm 31: 19 

How great is the goodness you have stored up for those who fear you. 
You lavish it on those who come to you for protection, 
blessing them before the watching world.

If anyone has family or other peoples' children to buy pressies for this Christmas, you’ll know they start thinking about it early! 

I have a friend whose grandkids live in a high rise flat in Hong Kong and as they’re all coming home to Devon for Christmas the excitement is majorly building up already! It’s the anticipation and expectation of good things they know are on the horizon. She lives in an old farmhouse so they know they'll sit in front of a roaring log fire, have a big Christmas tree and all the other lovely traditions their Grandma is so good at providing. 😊

So today I just thought it would do us all good to lift our eyes up and remember we too have great expectation of good things in our future that God Himself has planned and stored up for us. He wants to bring us into those good things we've probably never even thought of yet. 

His heart is to move us forward from where we are now, whatever it feels or looks like, into those prepared blessings He has for us and He'd like for us to have a heart that believes Him for them and looks forward to them with great expectation like the children.😊

Psalm 27:13 Yet I am confident I will see the Lord's goodness while I am here in the land of the living.
