Wait (Four Letter Words)
from MCC Podcast Hosted by Miamisburg Christian Church
We all learned growing up that 4 Letter Words are words you’re not supposed to say. In preparing for this weekend I actually searched for the phrase “4 Letter Words” online. I read, “Four Letter Words are words written with 4 letters which are considered profane or coarse.” I’m hoping certain words are not popping into your head now. So we took the idea and applied it to words that, as followers of Jesus, we might find as offensive as a 4 letter word. This week we start with “Wait.” I was reading an article about “Things I Hate” and the list included: People who tell you that you look tired Pistachios that don't open People who don't know what they want to order after spending 20 minutes waiting in line Clowns The one sock When the people walking in front of you are so. Slow. People who ask questions during movies When the person you're talking to has something in his teeth When the person you're talking to doesn't tell you that you have something in your teeth When your computer says you have Wi-Fi, but your browser says there's no Internet connection My guess is that everybody’s list would include “waiting.” For almost anything. And yet, waiting has always been part of our story. It’s almost as if God is using it to teach us something. This Sunday we’ll be reminded of what that something is.”
