Personal Challenge: I am often impatient with God, continually asking Him to show me what He wants me to do. I don’t want to wait; I want to know now. So, like a petulant child who says, “Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!” wailing for attention, I persistently pester God for an immediate answer.
For me, waiting is the hardest part. So I’ve decided to challenge myself to not only wait patiently on the Lord, but also to enjoy the waiting. I’ve decided to allow God’s perfect peace to surround me, to allow the stillness to encompass me, to allow it to soak deep down into my soul—to find a quiet peace in the silence that often comes with waiting.
I am determined to wait patiently on the Lord, to allow the One Who knows the beginning from the end—and has promised good things to me—to reveal His will in His perfect time.
