Waiting on the Lord… – Do you ever find yourself spending a large amount of time waiting? It could be waiting physically, such as waiting for a loved one to visit, waiting for a house to sell, waiting for an airplane to land, waiting in traffic or waiting in the check-out line at the grocery store. Or it could be spiritually, waiting on the Lord, wondering if the things we hoped for, even prayed for, will ever come to pass. We sincerely desire that our lives reflect God’s will, but waiting and truly understanding His timing and the different seasons of life can sometimes be so difficult. The good news is that our Lord is the “great I am” and through His Word, He assures us over and over again that He will provide for, bless, and bring hope, life and strength to those who wait on Him and follow His ways. (Isaiah 40:31)
