As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus I was reflecting on the gift of WAITING. WAITING is an art. Since time is such an important and valuable part of our life, we cannot deny that WAITING is a part of time. We spend a lot of our time WAITING! Waiting in traffic, waiting in line, waiting to hear from a friend, waiting to finish an exam and the list goes on and on.
Since waiting is a part of our life we can learn to PATIENTLY WAIT. To know that God‘s plan is unfolding in perfect time. We may get restless, uncomfortable, and very impatient but waiting is an ART. We need to deal with our frustration and learn and practice the ART OF WAITING. The Scriptures are full of people who patiently waited. Abraham and Sarah waited to have a child that they so longed for, Noah waited for the waters to reside, Paul waited in the prison cells, and we are invited at times to wait for God‘s perfect timing.
Today I am going to practice the art of WAITING joyfully, I’m going to trust that God is working in each and every area of my life for HIS glory. Waiting doesn’t mean I can’t continue to live in HIS presence It just means HE has a greater plan, and HE wants us to trust HIM! Have a blessed day!
