Listen "Time to joyfully expect big things of God (Advent 2020 Part Three)"
Episode Synopsis
Let's take an honest look at our expectations of God. Specifically, how our wounds and weakness can make us expect so little of him. The times when we feel threatened by others, insecure about ourselves, anxious about life—these are all fruit of a small heart with small expectations of what our mighty Father will do. Jesus says he will come. So do we believe him? And when he comes to us—at Bethlehem, at Mass, every day—are our eyes open to see him? Our hearts are meant to be bigger. Advent is a time for our hearts to expand with Christ's own heart. Jesus shows us how to have joyful expectations and real confidence that the Lord has revealed his goodness throughout history, continues to work today in our lives and the lives of all those around us, and will continue to work in the future. God has promised that he will come. Now's the time to pray with filial boldness and be available to him, awaiting his promise with joyful expectation.
