'He that believeth shall not make haste'; the believer who is marked by faith shall not run to and fro as do men at their wits end, nor be driven by any fears as are the wicked, of whom it is said, "Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall drive him to his feet", Job 18:11. With a fixed heart the believer can quietly wait upon the Lord, for God's timing is always best. Learning to accept this is one of life's most difficult lessons.
"Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him", Psalm 37:7

That we would have real life...
Listening to "Its about the Cross" by Go Fish, one of my favorite lines was this - "so that you and I could have real life someday".
"Real Life", something we all search for, but so often miss the mark. This Christmas we remember once again of the story of how the Lord came to this earth, Mary received her baby, and the world received their Savior. The Savior who ultimately suffered and died on a cross for our sins. He paid the price so that we would not need to. He gave his life, so that we could have life... real life.
