 In life, we're always waiting for something. Waiting for a dream to come to pass. Waiting to meet to right the person. Waiting for a problem to turn around. Much of life is spent waiting. There's a right way to wait, and a wrong way to wait. We hear that word wait, and most of the time we think that means do nothing. Be passive. Waiting is not supposed to be passive. True waiting is actively expecting. I prayed, I believed... now I'm expecting my health to improve. I'm expecting new doors to open. I'm expecting to have a blessed year. That's what it really means to wait. When you're waiting expectantly, you know, this could be the day you get the break you need. This could be the day the problem turns around. There's an anticipation in your spirit. You talk like it's going to happen. You act like it's going to happen. You're on the lookout! When you're waiting with expectancy, you're not moved by what you see. You're moved by what you know. You wait with expectancy like that, and you'll see God show up and do amazing things. - From the Joel Osteen podcast Photo by YIFEI CHEN on Unsplash
