This Christmas you are invited to a life-changing but difficult task: To wait. To go slow.

The coming of Jesus, the Messiah King, came after 400 years of waiting and anticipation. Consider the patience and slowing of God: Jesus, gestating in the womb for nine months and then waiting 30 years to begin his public ministry.

God is not hurried. Every moment he whispers, “I am with you.” We have to slow down to hear that whisper.
