Expectations

What are we expecting?

I pray today for God to stir within our hearts a deep desire to raise the level of expectation for what God can do in us and around us. Let's be honest, we often live with no expectations of God breaking into our lives, our churches, or our communities.

God is inviting us to dream with him today of what this world can look like when the power and presence of God is embraced as the ultimate reality.

I read this just this morning from Yancey's book PRAYER:

"I can view prayer . . . as a way of entering into the rhythms of eternity and aligning myself with God's 'view from above,' a way to harmonize my own desires with God's and then to help effect, while on earth, what God has willed for all eternity."

Thank you for this post. I have been thinking a lot lately about my walk with God. Your post reminded me I have forgotten to dream with God. Thanks for the reminder!
