I am learning about the "Place of Waiting." It isn't something new, just a new revelation of what it means to me, a deeper understanding.
There are many times in life when we are in such need of a touch from the Lord, a breakthrough to stuggles, or an answered prayer. And many times this need becomes so overwelming and we become so desperate we come to a place of decision. We have done all we know to do, prayed, held to His word, repented, fasted, but the answer or need has not happened yet.I am calling this the waiting place. We wait. When we can't move on our own anymore, when we don't really know for sure what to do. We wait.
Seems simple, but is it really. It isn't. But really it is a peaceful, healing place, if we can do it. Really do it.
In waiting we are not giving in to hopelessness, or giving up, or not praying, we don't stop fasting and seeking, , it is actually far from that. In waiting we are expecting our God to answer, we are trusting He will come through, we are believing based on His word and what it tells us. We are holding still, until He tells us our next move and waiting. Praying, praying. And I think it helps to study his word and concentrate on His character, who Jesus is. That gives us more strength to wait.
Waiting is Ok. It is more than ok, I believe I am learning it is a good place.
Whatever the need, little or small we wait so the answer comes from him.
I am waiting on the one who has never failed me, and believing all the things I take to Him, He hears and cares.
