Hope; a feeling of expectation.
This is my (Jill) absolute favorite time of year! Because we believe in and follow Jesus Christ, we observe this time of year called Advent. It’s beautiful, hopeful and filled with joy. Our hearts turn towards hopeful expectation. We put ourselves in the shoes of the Israelites, who were awaiting something spectacular in The Messiah. And, while His coming was unconventional, it was just like God. God who uses the unordinary, the unforeseen and unexpected, sent His Son as a baby.
May God fill our hearts with hope, faith, joy and peace as we seek Him! “I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in Him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.” Romans 15:13 NLT
Merry Christmas (Joyeux Noel) from Chateau d’Eau Church of the Nazarene, in Brazzaville, Republic of Congo.
