good things

The Lord is good to those whose hope is in Him, to the one who seeks Him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.

- Lamentations 3:25-26 (NIV)

 

Hello friends!

It is always good to return from vacation refreshed! 
Today I want to focus on an old saying “good things come to those who wait”. 

That is not really in the Bible, but it is attributed to a poem published at the beginning of the twentieth century by Lady Mary Montgomerie Currie under her pseudonym “Violet Fane”. 

Just like many people I find myself saying “I hope” a lot, and I pray for many things for myself and others.

Friends might hope for a new job or a good report from a doctor visit. 

Our hope should lie in the Lord, He is the one that gives us salvation. 

Sometimes when we have to wait for Him, it feels like He isn’t listening to us at all. 

I can remember several times when I hoped for something, only to be disappointed when it fell through, but looking back I see that it is way better that my “hope” did not come true. 

Wait for the Lord, He knows what He is doing.
