1 Samuel 30:1-31:13; Micah 1:1-2:13; Romans 9:1-29
They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength … Isaiah 40:31
How many times have we had to wait for something? Maybe it was in the emergency room, maybe for a health diagnosis, or even an answer from the Lord. It is not easy to wait on the Lord in this day of instant gratification. And often God is actually “preparing the answer” but we are impatient. Many verses tell us to wait on the Lord; “Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him” (Ps. 37:7). His timing is perfect. Are you waiting for something right now? Keep
trusting Him. —Virginia Strout
Jesus, I am resting, resting, in the joy of what Thou art;
I am finding out the greatness, of Thy loving heart. —Jean Sophia Pigott
