We all go through seasons in life. Happy,sad, and joyful and painful experiences. All of which we can bear fruit in, and seek God the most for his wise counsel. But one of the most difficult seasons is not trials, but waiting. Waiting upon the Lord. When we go through trials, we know that their is going to be an end. Because trials, for most, don't last forever. The pain may linger for quite some time, but eventually the trial does not last. But waiting to hear from God can be testing. Is it a good test? Of course. It stretches us, strengthens us, refines us, all of which God is allowing. Isaiah 30:18 says "Therefore the Lord will wait; that he may be gracious to you; And therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you. For the Lord is a God of justice; Blessed are all those who wait for Him." God is patient and he is gracious to us. May we never forget his promises and his faithfullness. For Jesus will be glorified in you.
Peace and Grace
