This is the first in a series of Advent messages on the topic: "What do you expect this Christmas?" It's about prayerfully considering what we really expect from our relationship with God and how we expect to be part of that relationship. Do we expect miracles? Do we expect challenges? Do we expected the unexpected? I believe that Scripture tells us about certainty in our expectations and that we must be willing to buy-in to God's vision for God's world. Embrace the certainty!
