TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: “Don’t be impatient for the Lord to act! Travel steadily along his path; he will honor you, giving you the land. You will see the wicked destroyed.” Psalm 37:34
TODAY’S MESSAGE: Impatience is not a virtue that is given to us by God. We get into a hurry and often get ourselves into trouble because we feel that we cannot wait. If we let patience go by the wayside, then we will often miss what God is saying to us and will then make unwise decisions. Our Lord tells us to continue to steadily walk along his path and keep our focus on Him. We are not to change our focus to our problems and then find ourselves wandering around in the tall grass of confusion. Instead, we are to pray, meditate and be patient. When we pray it sometimes takes the Lord time to answer us. We then need patience. The reasons for his delay are many, but most often it is because our timing in not right. Our God in heaven has the whole picture set before Him. He knows what we need in life and just when we need it. Lives affect lives. Our life and the way we live it will affect someone else. We must stay patient in receiving answers from God because he knows just the right time to answer. When we focus on our Lord, patience will help us to grow, but when we begin to stray by focusing on the problem, then impatience begins to take over. It is time to throw impatience away, stay on the path the Lord has given us and continue to trust in Him. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
