Wait for it . . .

Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.
– Psalm 27:14

Yet another reminder about patience!
I am so not patient. . . I want things to happen in a specific way at a set time with consistency.
But God has different plans.
It takes strength to wait for the Lord.
We want answers now, but sometimes God is found in the delay.
He uses waiting to form things in our soul that we won’t get any other way.
It is better to take heart and wait upon the Lord than to take things into our own hands.
I will say, that there were things I wanted that I didn’t get because God made me wait – and what I ended up with was far more valuable and precious than what I had originally wanted.


Have a blessed day!
