Waiting...

Lord, may I be certain of seeing Your goodness come to pass in my current situation, whether in triumph & victory or in loss & turmoil, as I experience Your mighty supply of grace & power sustaining me. Because of Your Spirits life at work in me, I will wait for You, Lord, courageous and with a strong heart, I will wait on You.-- Psalm 27v13-14 (emphasis)

     Our journey has seemed, full. Far in distance. Dark. Curvy. Bumpy.Sunny.Steep.Confusing.Overwhelming.Lonely.Life filled.Joyful.Full of Grace. Yet always seemed in the state of constant waiting...

    

    I feel like I am in constant waiting on the Lord. And remembering that in the original text "to wait" means "to cling to"... As I process this...it is becoming a bit more clearer...we are always in a state of waiting. In big picture we are waiting to see our Father face to face. And as we wait for this, in the here and now, we are to know Him and to make His kingdom known. So as our journey continues we will be in a state of constant waiting... we will be clinging to Him because He is why we Live. Why we take our next breath,our next steps. 

    I am learning that I am in complete dependence on Him... Mr. Chambers has said it well " the more we trust God the less we trust ourselves." I am capable of failing. But He who promised His goodness is faithful..and trust worthy. 

    I will wait for the Lord, courageous and with a strong heart..for Your ways are greater than mine. And your thoughts surpass them all. I will wait in expectancy. For Your love,O Lord, is better than life.
