Trusting God in the Wait!
There are times in our lives when we simply don’t know what to do, which way to turn, which way to go. No clear directions. No goals. These are the times we must wait on God. Be still and trust Him.
Proverbs 3:5-6 Lean, on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths.
Sometimes, I find that being still and waiting on God’s timing the hardest thing to do. But I never go wrong waiting on Him.
Psalm 40:1 I waited patiently and expectantly for the Lord: and He inclined to me and heard my cry.
To be patient is the ability to accept or tolerate delays, problems or suffering without being annoyed or anxious. This sounds a lot like a cancer diagnosis and everything that it entails. It is so wonderful to know that God hears us when we cry out to Him.
Psalm 40:2 He drew me up out of a horrible pit (a pit of tumult and of destruction), out of the miry clay (froth and slime) and set my feet upon a rock, steadying my steps and establishing my going.
God is able, as we seek His Face and spend time in His Presence, to draw us out of those dark, awfully dreadful places of fear and destruction. He draws us up and out of our despair and pain!! He brings us Light, clarity and stability. He gives us a safe, firm place to stand!! Alleluia!!
He turns our mourning to dancing! Turns our sadness to joy!
Psalm 40:3 And He has put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many shall see and fear (revere and worship) and put their trust and confident reliance in the Lord.
The song God puts in your mouth will be life changing and life altering to you!! It will transform you! It will bring you new life, new joy!!
When others see how God transforms your life and how He has changed you from the inside out, their lives will be forever changed as they turn to God in reverent fear and worship and put their trust in God!
Let God as you let go! Trust Him in this hour and wait with great expectation on Him. He will draw you up out of the place of dread and unrest. He will lead you safely to your firm place of rejoicing and peace.
Dear Heavenly Father be with my dear friend today. Hear her cry and draw her out of the miry clay and the pit that she finds herself in. Draw her out to a safe, firm place in You. A place of joy and peace. Father place a new song in her mouth, a song of praise and adoration of You. Allow her life to impact all those around her who beholds Your Work in her life and get Your Glory! In Jesus Name!
Now go, MoBetta Girl and conquer your world abiding in His Presence!!
