Malachi 4:5-6, Matthew 2:1-6 

God’s people have experienced great waiting and silence from God.

Between Malachi and Matthew, four hundred years passed in the Holy Land, a   time with no  prophets and  what seemed like silence from the Lord. 

What’s the longest you have ever waited in prayer?  What was the situation?  Can you recall how you felt as you waited?  Forgotten?  Discouraged?  Hopeless or angry even?

Sometimes we find hope in silence.
