On patience...

Share
Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.

Psalms 27:14

It takes courage and bravery to be patient..'be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord'....you will need to be strong. I will need to be strong to face each day and keep going on despite the fact that I have not seen any physical evidence of my good change. To keep sending stuff out despite getting a slip that says 'Thanks but no'. To keep keeping at it requires bravery and courage. To believe God and live life at the same time. To obey God when He tells you to make things happen for others with your skills and abilities. Because I believe that God will make life happen for me.


Daddy give me courage to be strong, to take heart and wait for you. Like David, let my wilderness season bring out psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Help me to wait with the right attitude, not in despair but in abundant joy serving others.

I was just thinking about how your last few posts have been so inspiring, such that everyone who read them was blessed. You know what I think? The wilderness is already bringing out the Psalms in you, it's not even a matter of praying for it to happen. Like David wrote, so are you writing life-changing words.

Wow what can I say but that your comments have left me humbled. These are what I call my 'rants'. Thanking God that He is bringing out Psalms in me.

Thank you Lord/

It is only a matter of when, and you will see, all this would be like a story. As I would always say, the wilderness was indeed the best part of my life, only that I didnt realise it them. I walked better with Him, and was more intune with the things that pricked His heart. The wilderness will definitely come to an end. What you need to ask God for is how to handle that new level. Now that is the tricky part.

How have you been? I think I've searched all over and cant seem to get any replies from you. I guess I will stop now ;), cause I think you wish not to be found :(
