My friend Bob tells me this image always reminds him of the father waiting for his prodigal son.
I like that.
I also think of a farmer praying the Angelus or praying for rain...
When will I learn to wait on God?
God waits for us.
He offers wisdom and gives strength. He blesses the humble. Lifts up the lowly. Brings down the mighty from their thrones.
Which one are you?
Are you a Priest, Brother, Husband, or Father who puts yourself up on some kind of throne?
If so... I gotta tell you - you're coming down. Sooner or later.
You can humble yourself now or be humbled later.
Walk in humility or fall in humiliation.
God alone is worthy of the throne.
