I WAIT
I don’t know if you ever had a time in your life when you had to wait on God for something, I mean something more than just His coming back. Maybe it was a trial in your life, a time of uncertainty, or just clear direction. I feel like that is I where I am, and have been for awhile now. As I have pondered these things, my poet side kicked in and I jotted these few lines the other day:
I feel the time is getting late,
but all I can do is wait.
I feel I am nearing the end of the rope,
but I have His promise and hope;
So I wait.
He said to wait, to hold on.
Though at times, I feel so alone.
A life filled with pain and trouble,
wondering, if the end worth all this struggle,
I wait.
All the things of life take its toll,
I struggle, wanting to be in control.
This is such a miserable state,
I think, “Why should I wait?”
but I wait.
Realizing we all have disappointment and failure,
But remembering we are told to endure.
They say in a relationship it is the subtance,
Willingness to wait is the real evidence.
So I wait.
