Filled with expectation

Wednesday September 12th, Philemon: 21-22 I know you well enough to know you will. You'll probably go far beyond what I've written. And by the way, get a room ready for me. Because of your prayers, I fully expect to be your guest again. 23 Epaphras, my cellmate in the cause of Christ, says hello. Paul trusted in God. Paul is sitting in jail. Paul lived in constant anticipation of what God had in store for him. Even prison was just another opportunity to witness, and even in prison Paul could anticipate the joys God still had before him. If we could only live our life that way, filled with expectation and joy and hopefulness, perhaps we too could see the spirit’s leading in all of life.
