Waiting

Delbert Ennswww.EasTview.org
A miracle happened. Mark was healed of prostate cancer. He is willing to pray for you. Prayer for Morgan who is going on DTS in Maui.

2015 is just around the corner. Spent 3 days in Ottawa. Prayed with the politicians. Met with the Prime Minister. Asked him about the shooting. Spiritual epiphany? Leave or be concealed. 8 hours of waiting hiding. Am I at peace with God? Yes. Prayed for him.

Delbert wished for tinker toys. Got pajamas. Disappointed.

What I want and wish for I want soon or it becomes an ordeal.

The Jewish nation waited thousands of years for liberation.

Diedrich Bonnhoffer waited for his door of freedom to be opened from the outside. He could not open the door himself.
Jesus came into the world and opened the door for us.

Nelson Mandela knew he had to leave his bitterness behind if he wanted to be free.

Simeon in Luke 2:25 was waiting and did not get edgy.

Marianne went to Calgary to visit her dad. So Delbert was all alone on Christmas day. He got edgy.

Simeon waited expectantly. Patiently.  You have to work at waiting. When God steps into our waiting things happen differently than we expect. Anna spent all day every day praying expectantly.

If astonishment and wonder don't overcome you, you missed the point.

You are invited to join us at the place of wonder at the Lord's table. He released me with his broken body and shed blood.
