Sunday, December 8 Traditions worship service.
Of the four Gospels, only Luke begins with the story of the birth of John the Baptist to Zechariah and Elizabeth—the story of a couple getting on in years, the wife thought to be barren, any hope of having children all but gone. Then comes the incredible promise of a child to be born to them.
How would you describe yourself when required to wait? On pins and needles, itching to change your situation? Resigned to what may be a long trial? Impatient? Eager, yet willing to wait? What does your response to waiting reveal about your relationship with God?
Luke 1:5-25, 57-80
