Wow, that has to be one of the hardest things in life doesn't it? When you heart is so full of things you want to do but God asks you to wait. How often do we push and push to get things done in our time but if we stop and listen God is whispering "just wait my child...let me take care of the timing"?
My friend Rett was going to do a post on our ministry blog for this weekend but she has had a long stressful week so I just ask her if she wanted me to do it. I prayed about what God wanted me to post because this is a very important weekend because our ministry will be highlighted along with a couple from our church adopting this weekend.
If you read a lot of blogs you know that sometimes there are those blogs that stretch you. The ones that can even make you mad at times because God stretches you in reading some of their posts. The ones that sometimes are so powerful you sit and cry about. My bloggy friend Adeye is one of those people. I knew her blog would be a good resource to go to in looking for something to put on the ministry blog this weekend. God showed me just what I needed for the blog but also for me.
I found this on her blog searching through things:
I cannot get this out of my head. There are so many things Chris and I want right now. We want him to have a stable paycheck every week, we want to have insurance, we want to build our house, we want to be able to take vacations and we want to bring more kiddos home. As much as we want, want, want God keeps whispering "wait child...wait, I have plans for you."
When God says "WAIT" do you wait?
When God says "GO" do you go?

Wait. I consider it one of "those" four letter words. Hehe.
I have been told to wait on many occasions. I'd love to be Pollyanna and say it gets easier. It doesn't. But in my experiences I rest in the knowledge that God's outcome is usually SO MUCH better and more wonderful than I could have ever dreamed of! Hello? My daughters? Totally true!
I'll wait alongside you, friend. That way, when God reveals His joy, His plan, I can celebrate with you!
