Wait

Sometimes God makes us wait because we are so spiritually exhausted from chasing after what we want that He has to stop us so that He can renew our strength.
Sometimes God makes us wait because we've forgotten how deceptive walking by sight can be.
Sometimes God makes us wait so that we'll remember who is in control--and how much we need Him to be in control.
Sometimes God makes us wait because there's so much more we need to learn--experientially--in order to soar on faith's wings when the next storm arrives,
Sometimes God makes us wait because we don't have the faintest idea what we really need, and we're too spiritually arrogant to accept that truth--let alone admit it.
Sometimes God makes us wait because we would be in deep trouble if we actually "caught up" with what we were chasing. Too often we pursue fool;s gold. How devastating would it be if we found out that what we think would make our life rich would actually spiritually impoverish us?
Sometimes God makes us wait so that we will learn that Father knows best.
Sometimes God makes us wait so He can thrill us once again with His perfect timing--and thus remind us of His wisdom and love.
Sometimes God makes us wait because in our selfishness we fail to look around at those He has put into our life that need us where we are.
Sometimes God makes us wait so He can immerse us in His perfect peace.

Always God makes us wait so that we can get in step with the Master and in agreement with His perfect plan for us--and thus find ourselves trusting in His perfect plan for those we love.

Wait on the Lord.
