Waiting

But these things I plan won't happen right away.
Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches
when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems
slow, do not despair, for these things will
surely come to pass. Just be patient!
They will not be overdue a single day!

Habakkuk 2:3


Have you ever been in a hurry when God wasn't?
God wants to work on you before He works on the project.
We all have to go through these waiting periods.
Why do we wait? It teaches us to trust in God. We learn
that His timing is perfect. One of the facts we have to
learn is this: God's delay never destroys His purpose.
A delay is not a denial.

~Rick Warren~

  1. we are in place to make some changes in our lives. I believe we will be waiting for awhile on some of our questions.

  2. I wonder why waiting is so hard to do? I'll have to remember that 'a delay is not a denial'.
