“I waited for the Lord; He inclined to me and heard my cry.” Psalms 40:1
Oh, how people can try our patience. How God can try our patience. We pray for things and at times we feel like God just ignored us. We ask God to do something and it doesn’t happen. Is God even there? Is He even listening to me? Yes, He did. I promise you that He did. Sometimes God will give you a straight and obvious answer: Yes or No. Then sometimes He gives a less obvious answer: Wait.
Wait??! How can I possible wait when I need an answer now? Remember, we don’t know what we really need. Only God knows that and He may not want to give us what we think we need. This is where trust comes in and that’s the only thing we can do.
Challenge!
This week see if you can see God working in your life. When you pray for something and it doesn’t work out the way you want it to thank God for His perfect plan that He has for you.
