God Esteem: Preparation for the Promise

Jesus prepared for 30 years to carry out a three and half year mission.  Preparation takes time.   We do not like when things take too much time.  We lack the patience and at times feel like we are not doing what we are supposed to be doing.  We must look at Jesus’ example again.  While in preparation I am sure Jesus was still doing meaningful things like cultivating relationships and I suppose He had a very fulfilling career as a carpenter.  While God is preparing us to be immersed into our destiny we should still be content where we are.  Paul says in Philippians 4:12 that he learnt the secret of being content in all situations.  Of course, he got that example from Jesus, as he said in I Corinthians, he follows Christ’s example.
