Waiting

What are you waiting for? Is your birthday just around the corner or a much anticipated vacation only a day or two away? Are you waiting to hear about a job interview or a promised raise in salary? Could you be waiting for a doctor's call to tell you the results of a recent medical test or news about a run away pet or worse a missing child? We wait for dinner, for traffic, for our turn in line, for our money to grow, for our first driver's license, for the wedding day, and for the funeral. Being in the "waiting room" can be lonely and sometimes frustrating but "take heart" and remember God's directive which I rediscovered during my quiet time today as I meditated on Psalms 27:14 "Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."
As I deal with digestive issues it is good to know I can be strong and wait for the Lord. He will act on my behalf in his perfect timing!
