People lament the arduous task of waiting in the midst of grief, illness, despair & injury. To remain steadfast in faith like Job seems unattainable. Hearts are anxious, tongues muted, ears deafened & bodies crippled. Anguish thrives in the hearts, minds & bodies of men & women. Yet followers of Jesus confess & believe the truth — the blind see, the lame walk, the deaf hear & the maimed are healed. In Jesus, compassion & mercy prevail, as we wait! (Psalm 71:15-18 & Philippians 4:4; Isaiah 35:1-10; James 5:7-11; Matthew 11:2-15)
