'Wait for the Lord, let our hearts, wait for the Lord, take courage, wait for the Lord, I say be strong, wait for the Lord." These words could not be more prevalent in my soul right now. God has really been teaching me to have patience over the past year. I know it's because of my constant struggle with being patient and having to wait for the things that I want.
The instant-gratification attitude in our present culture doesn't help things. We grow up thinking that we deserve to have the things we want, when we want them. I think God has other plans. There is so much to learn in a time of waiting. If we are constantly living for the future, we miss out on the present and all of the beauty that this moment has to offer.
I need to wait for the Lord and His timing, because His timing is best. And by waiting for the Lord to bring the next step in life, I can focus more on right now, and take in the beauty of the present moment.
