How long does it take for the Lord to work in our lives? Is it possible that there are some questions we bring to Him that He will never directly answer this side of heaven or is it that we are not listening closely?
While waiting and praying for God to give us specific direction on a certain issue we have been given His peace that an answer is coming, yet we are still waiting after many months. Recently an unsolicited email devotional came our way that seemed to speak to this issue. The message? Wait...
What is it that you are waiting on God to do or say and how do you patiently wait upon the Lord? Leave your comments; we'd love to hear what you have to say.

Hi B & C read both postings. I identify with both - funny how our needs and questions are so universal even if we are all so unique. I wish I were waiting for a particular answer, direction etc., for me it is the vagueness of the waiting that is difficult at times. I know I am walking in obedience and faith, I know the Lord has a plan and a future in all of my circumstances but I do not know what I am waiting for. Just this sense that I am in the waiting place right now. So I wait in anticipation, I wait in the sure knowledge that what I don't know He does, and I wait believeing that there is purpose even in the waiting - my life will not some how begin again when the answer(s) come but is filled with purpose and reason every day. BTW - you know that I am "waiting" for you and praying for God's best for you both! Thanks for the invite to share here not to mention for your friendship - you guys ROCK! t
Good looking couple & BLOG :)
Thanks for sharing-
Yes- waiting can be LONG and Hard sometimes BUT - we know God is in control and it's HIS timing that we
can trust.
Trust in HIS timing.
Rely on HIS promises
Wait for HIS answers
Believe in HIS miracles
Rejoice in HIS goodness
Relax in HIS presense..
..But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength: they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary: and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31
Hey, you're right that it is the vagueness of waiting that becomes the most difficult part of, well waiting!
Yes - I agree- Vagueness is tough.
We wait, look, wait, wonder - and
wait & wait. .... but we persevere
knowing its HIS will we're waitng for......If it's HIS will, He will
open those doors.
In our situation - every day is
a LITTLE step in HIS direction.
Every day seems to be a different turn -
We pray for WISDOM & then BELIEVE,
trusting He will give us that Wisdom (for direction).
We're praying for those doors to open for you.
xoxo we love you guys!f
