Waiting for the Promise
Acts 1:12-14
Then returned they to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.…


They were waiting in quiet expectation and hope, as little children sitting together on a Christmas Eve in a dark room, while in the next room the Christmas presents are preparing; for it was again the time of Advent, of the Advent of the Lord in the Spirit.

(J. P. Lange, D. D.)
