Why is it that we think we should have what we want right now without having to wait on God to deliver it to us on a silver platter?
Have you ever gotten tired of waiting on him and decided just to go and take it for yourselves?
If you have, I ask you: How did that work out for you?
I know what that is. To get impatient on those things that I asked God for. And so, because of that, I have jumped headlong into some fires that went on for long periods of time before finally God in all his wisdom to let me make bad decisions for myself, put them out for me.
For you see, God doesn't make us do anything we don't want to do. If we don't want to wait on his timing, he lets us go off on our own way until we get to the place that we get so sick and tired of being sick and tired and will go running back to him.
He has our futures planned out. And because of that, we don't always know why he doesn't just answer our prayers when we think he should. We get tired of waiting a lot times. We take our lives into our own hands. And eventually, we can become weak and tired if we have turned from him.
If we wait on him. Know that he is working in our lives despite the fact that it sometimes doesn't even feel like it, we become as eagles, strong and able to get where God wants us to be.
This is then the song we should be singing everyday:
They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings as eagles. They shall run and not be wear they shall walk and not faint
Teach me Lord,
Teach me Lord, to wait!
Thanks for stopping by today, Friends. God bless!
