What if waiting is an invitation?

“The past is frozen and no longer flows, and the present is all lit up with eternal rays.” C S Lewis   After preparing to speak at a high school retreat, I decided that the content was too good to not share in this space as well. Today we’re talking about not only the miracle of Lazarus being raised from the dead, but the wonder of Jesus presence in the middle of Mary and Martha’s pain.  Our idea of time and our expectations of what God should be like, is far different than the reality of the truth of who He is.  What if the waiting space we find ourselves in, is actually an invitation into intimacy?
