Wait


“Wait, wait patiently, wait.” –God

I have had the Lord speak audibly to me; I have literally been pushed to my knees where I felt His arms wrap around me comforting me without words. This time was different. This time something clicked. On March 30, 2011 God told me to wait. I wait for an unknown answer for an unknown length of time. He placed the verse Psalms 40:1 on my heart after speaking the phase above in an almost audible voice. I had read it before but only in passing. I had never studied it or made notes in the margins of the page. I opened my Bible and turned to the verse. It reads “I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry.”

I have been told to wait. I say that I don’t know the answer, but I know the context. Relationships. God was/is maturing my heart, making me into the women of God that my husband is to marry; however, I have been resistant. I want it to be a quick process. I want to think I am ready. I know what I want in life and I know that God has placed a passion with goals for me to achieve and I will stop at nothing to achieve them. Nevertheless, He continues on.

I am strong. I am determined. I am a child of God.

I usually have advice at the end of a post. I usually have and answer to my situation at the end. This time is different. This time I am at a loss for a conclusion. I am as I was on March 30th. Lost and confused only knowing that somewhere out there God has a divine plan for my life and I have to take it one day at a time to find it.

Day by Day. Moment by Moment. I am confident. I am here. I am the Daughter of the King of Kings.
