Waiting on God....

Waiting on God......

Have you ever just wondered when God would move in your life?

You pray and pray and pray and you just don't see him working in your life...

You keep praying, and you know God is working, but he just seems to be holding that answer right out of reach..... sometimes he even shows you the answer, but holds it just completely out of reach, or shows you the possibility of what could be, yet isn't.....

During those times it can get very discouraging, and some times we yell at God for keeping us in limbo.... we know that if only it would happen this way or that way, everything would be just wonderful.....

We forget that God knows everything, and all time is in his hands.... he has all the answers, and all the grace to sometimes not give us the desires of our heart, when we want them....

Sometimes it makes us stronger to wait on the Lord, and grow closer to him in the process of our journey to receiving the answer we are looking for...

Sometimes it isn't even us that needs to change or act differently.... it might be that someone else is in the situation that God is waiting on, it might have nothing to do with your pleading and prayer at all.... And all with the people around you, you might be the object lesson for someone else....

God is always working, always trying to draw us near to him, and he will use any way possible to get his work done here on earth...

When you are discouraged, remember that he is using this opportunity to draw you closer to Him.... that is the most important thing...  yet sometimes he keeps waiting for you to see the answer he is working on for you, or to see that his best for you is better than anything you have in mind.

Occasionally his answers are no, and that is always the hardest to understand.....  God knows the ending of your story, and all the in between too... it can be hard to get the unwanted answer, but God's best is the only way to live... don't try to do it your way, it will always lead to heart ache....

Believe he knows what is best, and trust in his timing...  

Sometimes it is easier than others.... Sometimes it is really hard....

But Wait on God, and it will be the best thing for you....
