13 I remain confident of this:
I will see the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living.
14 Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the Lord. Psalm 27:13-14
The human nature for patience has always been very thin, if it wasn't then we wouldn't have so many reminders about waiting on the Lord. Waiting is difficult because as we wait, our head swims with the different possibilities of whatever our situation is, and we tend to get impatient and rely less on the Lord. If we wait, we know the Lord is faithful and we tend to forget that part of waiting. We get in such a hurry to want what we think we need, that our patience runs thin. I know that I need to thicken up my patience and wait on the Lord to answer my calls for guidance and help. I don't need to let the enemy sneak in and make me think that God is not going to be there for me. So take a moment and wait this week. Listen to what the Lord says, and take heart and be strong. In the waiting comes the reward.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
