Ripe with Anticipation

Today I hear the phrase that something felt "ripe with anticipation," and I realize that's a wonderful feeling to cultivate.

You wake up, eagerly expecting the marvelous blessings of God--often disguised--awaiting you.

You wake up nearly bursting because of the day's possibilities.

This very moment might be seen as ripe with anticipation. So I cultivate that sense and I know--like the Israelites in Joshua 3:5--that something's coming. Joshua says, "Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you."

Yes.
