Christian Hope Is Relational

Homily from the Fourth Sunday of Advent

What happens when I don't get what I've been waiting for?

All through the Bible, God makes certain promises. He always fulfills them. But we cannot expect God to fulfill a promise that He has never made. No matter what, whether we get what we've waited for or not, we can hope in HIM.
