The Poco a Poco Podcast with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal


Dec 1, 2021

Second Week of Advent

 

God doesn’t make empty promises. But for many people… there are promises they won’t see fulfilled in their lifetimes. In receiving his promises, we also have to receive his timeline.

 

What does it look like to let God take his time? Start with stillness; sit in it; talk to him about it; think about when God has fulfilled his promises in your life. He hasn’t abandoned you before, and he won’t abandon you now.

 

Start off with what we know is true. Either the Father is good, or he’s not. Either the Father is present, or he’s not. We have to evangelize ourselves with the truth that is more real than suffering.

 

We’re going through Advent with Finding Your Place in the Advent Story from Ascension Press for the next few episodes. Check it out here: https://ascensionpress.com/collections/rejoice-finding-your-place-in-the-advent-story
