Charles H. Spurgeon on Psalms 130:6

Watch. We do injustice to that good and happy word, "watch", when we take it as watching against; against a danger; against a coming evil. It will bear that interpretation; but it is a far higher, and better, and more filial thing to watch for a coming good than to watch against an approaching evil. So, "watching for", we send up our arrows of prayer, and then look trustingly to see where they are coming down again. So, "watching for", we listen, in silence, for the familiar voice we love. So, "watching for", we expect the Bridegroom! Take care, that as one always standing on the eve, —not of danger, but of happiness, —your "watch" be the "watch" of love, and confidence, and cheerful hope. —James Vaughan.
