Worth Waiting For, Part One: Israel

The birth of Jesus signified God's cosmic, divine response to
centuries of prayerful waiting. Waiting is part of the human
experience, and waiting on God is paramount to the abundant life
of a Christian.

But this doesn't make waiting easier. As we wait, sometimes we
struggle to stay positive, sliding into anxiety, frustration and
despair.

Fortunately, the Bible teaches and faithful men and women of old
have shown that staying connected to God, seeking Him and
trusting Him while we wait is one of the ways he grows and
strengthens us. Because God knows us best and knows what is best
for us, we can trust that waiting is part of His good plan for
our lives.

In this series, we will explore the significance of Christmas
through the eyes of those who experienced God's profound response
to waiting firsthand. We hope you're encouraged by part one of
"Worth Waiting For."
