Waiting for Good
Key Verse: Isaiah 40:31 “but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength: they shall mount up with wings of eagles; they shall run and not be weary: they shall walk and not faint.”
Waiting in line.
Waiting for my turn.
Waiting to turn 18.
Waiting to say “I do”.
Waiting for the storm to pass.
Waiting for the test results.
Waiting till the leaves change.
Waiting for my loved one to feel better.
Waiting for my dad to take his last breath.
Waits. Some are sad. Some are full of anticipation. Some we hope pass quickly. Some we hope they never end.
No matter what your wait is you can take courage.
One day they will end and God has made some very special promises to his people for when they do.
Psalms 27: 13-14 “I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living! Wait for the Lord: be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord.”
Isaiah 40:31 “but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength: they shall mount up with wings of eagles; they shall run and not be weary: they shall walk and not faint.”
Lamentations 3:25 “The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.”
James 1:12 “Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him.”
Be encouraged in your wait today.
God will never leave you in the waiting one minute longer than it takes to bring you good. Even the hardest ones.
See you in the field,
Susan
