Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 9, 2015

| 9,376 views

When we receive the bread and wine during Holy Communion, we are holding Christ’s very body and blood, which was nailed to the cross and poured out for our forgiveness. We have seen it with our own eyes and felt it with our own hands and on our tongues.

Have you ever heard of the old saying, “Good things come to those who wait”? If so, the story of Simeon, Anna and the baby Jesus in the temple in Lune 2:22-40 is a good example. The coming of Christ involved all manner of waiting on God. A young maiden, a dying man and an old widow all ...read more

Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Nov 10, 2014

| 4,126 views

Even in Advent, the song of Simeon, does not appear as being festive; but it is necessary in the build-up to meet with Jesus; and I will warn you just now, it pushes our faith to the limit; but it does provide relieve.

Welcome Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
