How many have waited in line in hopes that something special was coming along?
Personally, I've waited in line in LA hoping to get into the Price is Right. I thought the first ticket I got was the ticket to get in, but turns out you need to get another one or something like that, so I got to hang out at the beach while all my friends got in.
Maybe, like me, you've waited in line at Best Buy on Black Friday hoping for a really good deal on a new game system or a tv? Maybe you've stood in line hoping to win tickets to your favorite band's show.
In Proverbs 8:34, it says "Blessed is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. For whatever finds me finds life, and obtains favor from the Lord."
Just like waiting in line for those other things was worth it, waiting at the door for Christ is worth every minute. You don't just win a ticket, or a cheaper tv, but you find life! It's worth the wait.
