A temptation that we can face as we wait on God is to lower Scripture to our circumstances. We start trying to find reasons why God doesn't fully do what this promise we've been holding on to says He does. We lower Scripture till it fits with our circumstances and experiences and then say, "Hooray!" But what if we're not supposed to do that? What if, despite the wait, we are meant to maintain the high bar of what God has actually said? How do we do that? How do we maintain a big faith, and an expecting hope as we wait? That's what this message is about.
