Great expectations are God’s gift alone, and yours just receive it. Despite the vicissitudes we faced in the previous years;
- the death of loved ones, sickness, and disease
- wars and rumors of wars
- financial setbacks
- betrayal, wickedness in the highest seats of government (Proverbs 29:2)
- radical homosexuality, radical Islamic terrorism

Truth is, God brought you thru, another year. Perhaps you don’t believe, and you have been convinced that there is no God, you may be an atheist, agnostic or, believe there is no god but Allah! Here’s God’s word to you, fools (Psalms 14:1)
Great expectations are God’s gift alone
The believer only after receiving God’s salvation gift-“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. ( Ephesians 2:8-9) And like all disciples, you’ve received the Lord’s Commission, to Go… (Matthew 28:19-20)
“Praise the song of a soul set free”
He promised to put a new song in our mouth a song of praise to our God…(Psalm 40:3)
“How we do the job God assigns us, is the measure of our service to Him….Do all to the Glory of God. (1 Corinthians 10:31). We can choose the attitude toward the tasks we’re given
“Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing. (Rev. 5:12)
Great expectations, are God’s gift alone, through his Son, from his Father only when his task was finished at Calvary. (Philippians 2:5-11)]
Great expectations await me
while around me I see
hate violence and despair
from the comfort of my easy chair
quickly musing He takes
me there, to the place prepared
where greater expectation awaits me.
RAH 1/9/16
