How do I do that…what does waiting look like?

on 16/February/2012

Beloved–

I pray for wisdom on how to choose the right plan; and then I do everything within my power to carry out that plan.  There are many different doors of opportunity that appear to start me on the road to my goal; but some doors are locked and others go no where.

 

Be still in the presence of the LORD, and wait patiently for him to act.*


How can I wait? Just how does waiting work in everyday situations?  How can I actually function?

 

Trust in the LORD and do good.*


I grumble and complain (a lot) but in the end I submit to his authority over my life.  There is no other way to be happy then to trust and obey!  I do what needs to be done and when I think about my desired goal and impatient thoughts enter my mind, I forcibly reject the thought, sometimes out loud.  I tell myself God is working, his timing is perfect, and I thank him for what he is going to do; I praise him for who he is and his graciousness to me.

 

Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you your heart’s desires.*


*from Psalm 37

I pray daily for you to submit to his authority over you and take delight in the LORD.

Luv Ya!
