Today I was at church and there was something which really caught my attention. There was a part in the worship service when the children are given baskets to collect an offering. I noticed that the baskets that were given to the childen were tiny. The baskets were cute, but not able to hold much money. The thought occured to me, "How much money to they EXPECT to collect in these tiny baskets." What about you how big is your Expectation Basket? Remember you can only recieve that for which you have made room. Catherine Ponder tells us that if you want new clothes, make space for them. One lady who was looking for a mate noticed she slept in the middle of the bed. She started sleeping on one side. She made room in the closets for her expected mates clothes. If this sounds a bit looney to you, she was married in less that than a year. We show what we really expect by our actions of preparation. When a man is going to propose marriage to his love, he goes and buys the ring before he proposes not after. He is EXPCETing a YES. Are you showing that you are EXPECTING yeses by your actions? If you want to move, don't just look for houses, start packing. If you want more good in your life, maybe you need to get a bigger EXPECTATION BASKET. What actions have you taken in the past or will take in the future to show your expections. Was this post helpful?
