Psa 27:14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
Oh, what a simple yet powerful declaration!!! How often do we fail to simply WAIT?? Over and over in the scriptures we are admonished to simply Wait... not to pursue, not to labor, not to struggle... just to wait upon the Lord... Waiting is the hardest commandment we are given because of its passive nature... we are doers and movers by nature, and this waiting is so difficult... To wait upon the Lord (even KNOWING it is what HE has called us to, and that HIS ways are always perfect) requires us to give up our activity and to simply allow HIM to supply what it is we need... Such beauty is to be found when we simply obey the command and allow HIM to be to us what we need... So remember, when it seems you have DONE all you can, maybe it is time to WAIT... and let HIM BE all HE is...
God Bless and keep you all in the magnificent glory of HIS Love...

... I never ceased to be amazed by HIS ability to wrap HIS words together and the lessons that will be brought to fruition by all parts working together...
