When God Makes You Wait and You Hate It (Psalm 27:14)

Today’s Bible Verse: “And she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.” — Luke 2:7 (NIV)

Luke 2:7 captures the quiet, humble moment where heaven touched earth. The Savior of the world did not arrive in comfort or celebration but in simplicity and scarcity. This verse reminds us that God often enters our stories in unexpected places—ordinary, overlooked, and far from ideal.

Today’s Bible Verse: “Because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven.” — Luke 1:78
