--God's Calling Us to .....
-"Wait upon the Lord and He will strengthen
your heart. Wait I say, upon the Lord."

-MORE THAN
WAITING ~~

--Read: Acts 1:1-11

'A little while, and you
will not see Me; and
again a little while,
and you will see Me,
because I go to the
Father.' --John 16:16

--JESUS told His followers that He would soon be leaving them and they would need to wait for His return in "a little while" (John 16:16). After His resurrection, they saw Him again and they hoped He would be establishing His kingdom on earth at that time. But He told them, "It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority" (Acts 1:7). They would have to wait even longer.

But they were to do more than wait. Jesus told His followers that they were to "be witnesses to [Him] in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth" (v.8). And He gave them the Holy Spirit to empower them to do this.

We still wait for Jesus' return. And while we do, it's our delight, in the Holy Spirit's power to tell and show others who He is, what He has done for all of us through His death, burial, and resurrection, and that He has promised to return.
