[[-SOAP HUB]] | [[-Psalm Overview]] | [[Psalm 62]] ## Title: Patient Expectation ## Scripture: (Psalm 62:1) “For the music director, Jeduthun; a psalm of David. For God alone I patiently wait; he is the one who delivers me.” (NET) ## Observation: One of my favorite things about being a parent was Christmas. I loved experiencing Christmas through the eyes of my children. They would get more and more excited as the holiday arrived. They loved it all. They loved the lights, the music, and the gifts. As the season came closer and closer, they never once wondered if it was coming. They would complain about how long it was taking, but they never thought we would skip Christmas. Just as sure as the sun was going to come up, eventually enough days would pass and it would be Christmastime. This is how we should feel about God’s victory. We can be unsettled by how long we think it takes, or how He goes about doing it, but we should never wonder IF it will take place. Just as surely as the sun will come up tomorrow, God’s victory is assured. Once again, this does not mean He will do it our way. That’s a good thing. We have a limited way of seeing the world. He will do what needs to be done the right way. This means it will be better than we could have hoped for all involved. ## Application: Consider God’s victory as certain as the changing of seasons. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for being consistently dependable.
