Don t Just Settle-Wait on God

There was a young bride-to-be that was soon to be married to a young man that was not a good match for her. And she knew better but her prayer was that God would still allow her to marry him. She didn't have the assurance that she deserved better or the confidence that someday someone would come along that would be a godly mate for her. 

It was not very long after the wedding that she found out just what a mistake she had made. This man had a drinking problem that was sending him on his way to being a full-blown alcoholic. From very quickly in the marriage through the next 15 years, she was miserable but did not know how to escape this disastrous marriage that was also bringing children into it. 

Thankfully, this couple did turn to God and he graciously healed them and their marriage-as he promises he can and will do for us when things go wrong in our lives. Romans 8:28 For we know that God works all things for good to them that love the Lord and are called according to his purpose

But why go through things that we do not have to when we get impatient with the Lord and rush ahead of his will for us? He wants to give us his best. Not his second or third or fourth. But his best. And we can avoid much pain by waiting for him to give it to us.

If you have gone ahead of God and your life is not what you thought it should be, God can heal it and you. If you are still waiting for that someone to come into your life, please wait for God to give him or her to you. Take it from my experience. You will be glad you did.

Thanks for coming by today friends. I wish for you and yours many blessings in this week ahead!
