WAIT

Wait is a four letter word. In or American culture we don’t like to wait for anything. We all use fast food restaurants, high speed internet access and express lanes on the freeway. We want what we want and we want it now.

We pray for instant miracles, we pray for instant changes, but what happens when God says wait? That’s what happened to me today. I have been praying for some changes in my life and today real clear God said ‘WAIT’.

Now I’m no stranger to God asking me to wait, I waited until I was 44yrs old to marry and God blessed me with the perfect man for me. I prayed to be sent out as a missionary in the mid-80s and God said wait and the very day I was to be in Sri Lanka the place where I would have been staying was blown up.

When God says Wait we have two options:

W = Walk in what I already have or Whine about my circumstances.

A = Accept that He has plans for good or get Angry

I = Initiate a chance for change or sit Idle.

T = Trust in the Lord or Turn away from Him.

Waiting doesn’t have to be a trial or a test, it can just be God getting everything in place including making subtle changes in me. So today I will WAIT on Him because I only want the best.
