We all come to a point in our life when we must wait on the Lord. We might be waiting for a job, where you send a dozen and then some resumes out to a million different places. We might be waiting for a direction from the Lord, where to move or if to stay. Others might be waiting to start a family, praying for the perfect timing in Him. And some are waiting on God to bring that right person to spend their life with. No matter what you are waiting on, the fact of the matter is, waiting and being patient is part of the Christian walk. God works in mysterious ways, He prepares the heart, grows the faith, convicts the sin, and sanctifies our lives through the waiting process. I've always had the tendency to rush, tapping my foot, wanting an answer or a remedy to fall on my lap. But when I've stepped back, prayed, surrendered things into the hands of a Mighty God, who is more then capable, my soul is at peace, knowing His timing is never a mistake.
Psalm 27:14
Wait on the LORD;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the LORD!

amen and amen...glad that you are trusting the King of Kings and Lord of Lords...that is where we can truly rest
Kelly, this is a great post. Most of the battle for me is just remembering to give it away to God to work. Once I do that, the wait seems not like a wait at all, but a sort of nice anticipation of what is to come. See you soon!
