Greater Life Church

We are in a season of lists and wishes. Some sit on Santa's lap, and others make wish lists online. With online shopping, we can know when we ordered it when it left the warehouse, and when it is out for delivery. We can also get a photo of it at our front door within minutes of delivery. Amazon, Walmart, Target, and other online retailers operate enormous warehouses called fulfillment centers, where workers fill boxes with every item on the order and send it to the trucks for delivery. Other aspects of life work differently. We can want and ask for things, but we do not know when we will see them. Depression, anxiety, and loneliness often increase during the Christmas Holiday season. Many question their life and why things happen to them during this time of year. The Bible is full of the phrase, "This happened so that prophecy would be fulfilled." We do not always understand why something happens, but everything that happens is to fulfill God's plan. The word fulfilled means to furnish or supply. In God's terms, this fulfillment is always more than expected. God does not lie and does not change His mind. If He said it, it will happen in its season. That last part is the tricky part for us. God's timing is perfect, but it is always longer than expected. God's promises will always be fulfilled.
