Waiting...
“They that wait upon the
Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they
shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint”
IS 40:31

The Waiting Place
When you wait upon the Lord, you learn to see things from a
different perspective, from His
perspective.
He is not concerned with time as we who are subject to the passage
of moments and days, so we learn to move at His pace, and to function under His
directives. The times of waiting are growing times and learning times. When we
quiet our heart, we enter into His peace. When we understand more fully our weakness,
we receive His strength.
As we lay down our will and submit to His will, His voice becomes
clear and we hear Him. Then…we mount up, lifted by the wings of His Spirit,
like the lofty eagle. As we move forward, we become sensitive to His timing and
when we act, we give ourselves only to the things He has asked us to do.
