But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31
Oh Lord what a hard lesson to learn…wait…wait….wait… Today we are such an INSTANT society. Our food cooks quickly in the microwave. We drive through the restaurants and our food is ready. We Google the information we are looking for and it is there in the blink of an eye. Today we have everything at our fingertips and we read …..wait….wait upon the Lord and our strength will be renewed.
Lord how true this is when we have surgery. Healing takes time. Yes, we have to wait….and wait…and wait. The beauty in waiting is what happens when we slow down and listen to Your still small voice within. Ahhh…it is worth the wait. Inner strength is built. Closeness to You happens. Oh the wait was worth it. On the other side of the wait we are soaring like the eagles because we have had an encounter with You. One that taught us the value of waiting. Oh how blessed we are and we thank You.
Thank You Lord.
Amen
