Joy in the Waiting

     Good morning y’all! I honestly wasn’t even planning to post this, but this morning, I just sat down and started writing. Even though I only wrote a paragraph, I thought I would share it with you. As you read, reflect on the season of life you’re in. Are you still in school? Are you impatiently waiting for God to put THE man into your life?(girls you know what I’m talking about) No matter what season you’re in or what struggles you’re going through, trust God. He will give you joy in the waiting 

Joy in the Waiting

     When that feeling of dread washes over you like a tidal wave, the feeling that things are not going to work out the way you planned, that feeling that you’ll never see a change in the never ending path ahead, how do you handle it? Do you just shove your feelings down into the innermost depths of your heart? Or do you seek the One who owns that heart?  Next time you’re feeling as though things will never be alright…seek the One who knows your destiny, who knows your heart, and who knows each and every hardship and each and every joy you will experience. Ask Him for joy in the waiting.  

“I waited patiently for the LORD; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God.”

~Psalm 40:1-2
