Luke 1:34-38 "Waiting on the Lord: Lessons from Mary, Thomas and the Prodigal Son"


Listen Later

This message explores the biblical concept of waiting on the Lord through three key narratives: Mary's faithful response to Gabriel's announcement, Thomas's transformation from doubt to belief after encountering the risen Christ, and the father's patient waiting in the Prodigal Son parable. Guest Speaker, Pastor Brett Robinson of Calvary Chapel Palm Harbor explains that true biblical waiting (Hebrew: Kavah) isn't passive but involves actively knitting one's heart with God's goodness. Through these accounts, he illustrates how God's patient love often means He is the one waiting for us, whether it's through Mary's teenage faith, Thomas's need for proof, or the father watching for his son's return. The message challenges listeners to move beyond surface-level Christmas celebrations and worry-filled waiting to embrace a deeper trust in God's character and presence, emphasizing that what we truly need is to "see Jesus" in our circumstances.
