The Wai(ng Room
Wai(ng (me is
Wasted (me.
When we’re wai(ng: • We resent others • We race ahead • We rage at God
God: Why me?
Where are you? What’s the point? Don’t you love me?
Advent: The Church’s Wai(ng Room.
John the Bap(st
“When John heard in prison what the
Messiah was doing, he sent word by his
disciples…” MaIhew 11:2
“And they said to him, ‘Are you the one who is to come, or are we to wait for another?”
MaIhew 11:3
“When Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, he withdrew
to Galilee.” MaIhew 4:12
“When Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, he withdrew
to Galilee.” MaIhew 4:12
“Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John what you hear and see: the blind receive their
sight, the lame walk, MaIhew 11:4
“the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised,
and the poor have good news brought to them.”
MaIhew 11:5
When we’re awai(n’, God ain’t a ha(n’.
Even when we wait, God’s love is s(ll great.
“And blessed is anyone who takes no
offense at me.”
When the wai(ng is rough,
is God’s love enough?
