Jer 31:7-14; Psa 147:12-20 & John 1:10-18 How many times are we preemptively underwhelmed because of our low expectations? Whether with concerts, politicians, vacations, or family members, sometimes we just expect too little and see exactly what we are looking for. This week, the lectionary readings invite us to see that the work of God is greater than we could ask or imagine.
