While I'm Waiting by Travis Greene, featuring Chandler Moore

Travis Greene – While I’m waiting, I will trust in You

Waiting on God can be difficult at times.  He speaks a promise to us, and we believe. We’re so excited! He is getting ready to do something, and we can hardly stand still!

So we wait for Him to fulfill His Promise.

Hours turn into days.  Days turn into weeks, and weeks turn into months… and yes, sometimes even years.

We hang on to His promise, and remind ourselves that His Word never comes back void.  He will accomplish exactly what He says He will! (Isaiah 55:11)

This song is very encouraging to me as I’m waiting for God to fulfill a few of His promises.

Santa Claus Covid Confessionals

Christmas Smiles and Tears: Santa Claus Covid Confessions

Like many of us, Santa has had a rough year.  And he needs our prayers.

God is gracious enough to provide friends like Santa to help us through our rough patches.  Yet, do we ever stop to thank them?  When what we get isn’t what we wanted, are we patient with them?

We all know how much Santa loves to be around people and to make them laugh. However, the quarantine and social distancing has clearly frayed his nerves somewhat.

Store up your testimonies of His faithfulness in Spiritual Journals

Store up your testimonies of His faithfulness in Spiritual Journals

When God pours out Testimony Treasures, it’s important that we stockpile them for our greatest time of need.
While you are out shopping for Thanksgiving groceries this week, I’d encourage you to buy a beautiful, sturdy notebook, and maybe a fancy pen.

Then, every day, fill your notebook with God’s promises to you, and testimonies of His faithfulness!  Some nuggets may be small, like the blessing of a candy bar you rarely touch, or a song on the radio, or the hug of a little child.
Small or great, write them down in your Spiritual Journal. Fill your storehouse of faith with fuel for the times you’ll need it most.

“They overcame [the accuser] through the blood of the Lamb, and through the word of their testimony about him. They did not love their lives to the point of refusing to die.” (Revelation 12:11, MWNT)
