Advent - waiting with expectation - Audio

Advent is a season of hope, but it’s a different hope than the hope the world has. The world’s hope is nothing more than wishful thinking. Biblical hope is the trust and confidence that we have in God, knowing He’s forever true and will keep His promises. It is this latter hope that kept the Israelites going, and God provided for them as they had need. In our case, we need to have the hope and expectation that Jesus will return. This is our hope for the future, that He will return and has prepared a place for us.
