What Are We Waiting For?

You know in that last song we sang, it talked about that Christ is risen and yet right before he rose, Jesus made this statement, he said, "I'll never leave you and I'll never forsake you." Now that sounds kind of like a contradiction, "I'm not going to leave you yet I'm about to leave you," but earlier he had spoken these words of truth, he said, "Don't worry, I will send you a Comforter. I will send you the Holy Spirit. I will send you the Holy Ghost who will empower you to live the life you've always desired to live." Today we get to celebrate that fact. We get to study that fact. We get to realize the fact that we have not been left to our own devices but that we actually have he, as Scripture says, that is within us is greater than he who is in the world.
