Day 21: The Peace Of Wait


I had a tossing and turning kind of a night.

I wasn't sure if I was dreaming or thinking too much of

the "things" that are on my heart

that I can't change,

yet want changed.

The PRECIOUS THINGS of LIFE

that I crave so much,

yet there is a gapping hole

because there is nothing I can do

to CHANGE them.

For GOD says WAIT ON ME.

Oh how I feel that I am GIVING UP

when I am WAITING ON GOD,

as I FEEL as if I am doing NOTHING.

But WAITING ON GOD

is GIVING UP.

A GIVING UP to the ONE who never GIVES UP.

For WAITING ON GOD

is a

FORWARD MOTION

because

WAITING ON GOD

is TRUSTING GOD

and

TRUSTING GOD

enables you to

PRESS FORWARD

while you continue doing life

wherever you are

because

WAITING with GOD

keeps you

moving in

TRUST~

"Trust in and rely confidently on the Lord with all your heart And do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him, And He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way]"

(Proverbs 3:5-6).

Have you tried it?

WAIT.

WAITING is the sweet spot of TRUST

that

grows you,

changes you,

transforms you,

to becomes so much

MORE

than you are in this moment,

just as a caterpillar WAITS in its chrysalis

to become so much

MORE

the moment

it flaps its wings for the very first time.

For it is in

THE WAITING

where

GOD takes you beyond your wildest dreams

to spaces and places in your

HEART

that

become open

to MORE of

HIM as HE fills those empty spaces and places

with more of

HIMSELF,

so that you no longer are thinking about yourself,

because it all becomes about

HIM

who

shows up in your WAITING SPACES~

"I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord"

(Psalm 27:13-14)

What are you WAITING for?

For a test result.

For the prodigal to return.

For reconciliation.

For a sunny day.

For __________.

Will you WAIT WITH GOD

so that you will experience

THE ABUNDANTLY MORE

that GOD has

for you

"WHILE YOU ARE WAITING"
