That God will say or do something that I could not have imagined, and praying that I will be totally open to God's presence in whatever form it comes.
That's the answer that comes to my mind in response to a question asked by one of my colleagues last week: "What do you expect to happen when you go to worship?"
As I think further on this, however, I wind up moving this answer to things beyond the corporate worship of the body of Christ on any given day, and look at life in general. What would my life look like if I thought this way when dealing with: family, friends, co-workers, neighbors...or pretty much any and all situations in which I find myself? What would your life look like if you allowed yourself to anticipate God saying or doing something in the most unlikely or mundane things?
So often, it seems that we allow ourselves to be in the mindset that in any given situation, God is going to do this or that. I want to encourage you this morning to anticipate that God will be revealed to you in any and all situations, and to pray that you will allow yourself to be moved by the Holy Spirit into a place where you will see the God who is being revealed to you, in whatever way God may choose.
See you Sunday!
