Waiting Here For You Giveaway

I can’t believe that Christmas is just a month-ish away! Advent starts next week on November 29th. If you aren’t familiar with Advent it is the season of expectant waiting and celebration before Christmas. What I love about this season is all the correlations between Advent and our journey to becoming parents, because they really are so similar! Just like we celebrate and anticipate the arrival of Jesus during Advent, I too am passionate about waiting expectantly and celebrating in advance what the Lord is going to do with bringing our babies.

If you have have followed this blog for any amount of time, you know that waiting is a topic I am so passionate about, which is why I am excited for a new book, by Louie Giglio, on this very topic. This book points the story back to Jesus and reminds us that the Christmas story not only reaffirms faith in God, but gives us a reason to celebrate! As we all walk through trials and struggles, the story of the arrival of Jesus truly can bring so much hope.

“Advent builds in us hope that God is going to come through. Christmas is about a promise fulfilled”. Larry Giglio

Louie Giglio put together this 112 page book, Waiting Here For You which is designed for Advent. Louie addresses that Christmas is a time to celebrate the greatest arrival that ever could have happened. There is a devotion for each day for Advent season which includes an assigned topic related to waiting, a passage, reflection, meditation, prayer, and a picture!

Maybe like me, you are also waiting on an expected arrival. Know that there is purpose in your wait. Just like Advent is the season of waiting and celebrating Jesus, your wait will also have a fulfilled longing! Don’t give up on the expected arrival of what you are waiting for!

Since I know I am not the only one waiting and I don’t want to read this all by myself, I am giving one winner a $25 gift certificate to Family Christian so they can buy this book (and get an additional something else for themselves too).

PS I found this video from Larry Giglio and it brought me so much hope! I hope you get a chance to watch this too!
