Anticipation

Anticipation is an interesting thing.

When I was a kid I would anticipate a coming event. I would wait and wait until the event actually arrived. Sometime the anticipation was worth the wait and at other times it wasn't.

Today as a "grown up kid," I am anticipating the day ahead.

Getting up early helps. Even though I am anticipating another day of intense heat, high humidity, oppressive working conditions, and hurting people, I am confident that today will be a great day.

The smells of breakfast are wafting into the eating area.

The aroma of servanthood calls us to the field of service and we are anticipating Him to be there ahead of us.

More stories tonight.
