” Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.” Psalm 27:14
“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your hearts desires.” Psalm 37:4
As we travel through life we meet many obstacles along the way. Some are small and some are very large and intimidating. It doesn’t seem to matter to our Lord God in heaven just what our problems are, he is ready to help us. The issue for us is that we sometimes must wait for our answers. He doesn’t act within our timeline; he acts within his. There are two things that we must be able to do. The first is to not fear. We must trust in him to do what he has promised. If we ask for anything within his will we will receive it. There should be no doubt in our being that God lives up to his promises. The bible tells us that he never fails on a promise. With that, we should be able to rest within his arms of comfort while we wait. The second thing we must do is be patient. As we wait courageously for his answer we must take delight in him. We must praise him and give him glory for his wonderful deeds in our lives. We should thank him for the answers to our prayers and for the work he does in our lives. We should always give way to his thoughts and his words in our lives rather than our thoughts and words. The Lord God above gives us peace of mind, and it is wise for us to believe, receive and thank him for his promises and gifts. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
