Long Awaited Savior
by Tim West | December 19, 2011
This is the last eNews of the year. Wow, can I really be saying this? As I get older, it seems the year goes by faster and faster. Christmas has just finished and yet it is here again. You know the feeling I’m sure.
With that in mind, I wonder how the disciples felt waiting for Jesus. He said he would come back, so they waited. He said he would rebuild the temple, so they waited. They were being good disciples by waiting. And just days later, he did come back—but not as they expected! He came back as the Holy Spirit. No longer cloaked in a human body, the Son of God came in full power as the third person of the trinity. When God comes, it’s not always as we anticipate.
As the calendar expires on 2011, how did God come to you this year? How did he come to your ministry? Was it as you anticipated, or did He appear in some unique form? More importantly, though, are you experiencing his power? Enjoy your holydays, my friends—they’ll be gone before you know it!
