Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
No me gusta esperar. Aun así, mi esperanza en el Señor me da una paciencia que sobrepasa mi debilidad humana. Como me ha bendecido tanto, estoy totalmente confiado que no puedo imaginar las cosas buenas que tiene preparado para mí. Así que, mientras espero, trato de mantenerme ocupado, ocupado amando a mi Padre en el cielo y compartiendo su gracia con los demás.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
I'm not good at waiting. I don't like waiting for Christmas. I don't like waiting in line to check out or check in somewhere. I don't like waiting for someone who is late. I don't like waiting for a surprise. I don't like to wait for.... well, you get the idea, I don't like to wait. But my hope in the Lord gives me patience beyond my human tendency. As much as the Lord has blessed me, I'm fully confident that I can't even begin to imagine the good things Jesus has in store for me when he comes again! So, while I wait, I try to stay busy, busy loving my Father in heaven and busy sharing his grace with others.
Mi oración
Gracias, Amado Padre, por la paciencia que hoy tengo mientras espero la llegada de Jesús. Bendice mis esfuerzos de guiar a los demás a conocer a Jesús encontrando salvación en Él. Bendice mi fe para que sea fuerte y duradera. Bendice mi vida, no con posesiones, sino con el tu carácter para que mi vida pueda ser una luz a los demás. En el nombre de Jesús, Amen.

Thank you, dear Father, for the patience I possess as I await Jesus' coming. This patience is beyond my normal inclination, and I recognize it as a gift from your indwelling Spirit.
