Are you in a season of waiting?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Are you longing for God to move you to the next step in your journey?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Are you ready for God to deliver on his promises in your life?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Are you anticipating your prayers to be answered today and in your on way?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
Waiting on God\u2019s timing is hard. His timeline is almost never aligned with the one we desire.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Yet, his timing is always perfect \u2013 even though it can be hard to wait for. Be reassured, God knows what we need and the time that we need it.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I know it is hard, this thing called patience. I feel your pain. I sometimes struggle in the waiting room of life.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But remember this, God is never accidental. He is always intentional. He is always precise. Everything he does has a purpose.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Sometimes the wait is for God to align other pieces of the plan. Sometimes the wait is for God to align the pieces of our own heart.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
As much as we want to move forward NOW \u2013 sometimes we\u2019re just not ready. We have more to learn, more to change, more to grow. This is always hard for me to accept. But I\u2019m trying.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
We must let go and let God. Stop fighting the process and surrender to God\u2019s work in our hearts. Submit to God\u2019s timeline and process.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Let go of our attempts to control and plan our way out and allow God to lead. I like to be in control, always have. It comes from a time when I had no control. God has taught me to trust Him. Let Him have the reigns of my life. Truthfully, I\u2019m still learning at times. But I am always willing.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Be encouraged today that God has promised He will honor us if we submit to His timing.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
God doesn\u2019t always just give us the quickest way out of a bad situation, He wants us to take the very best way out, one that makes ultimate change to our circumstances and not simply a temporary escape.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Keep your focus on His love for you and know that He truly does want you to succeed. I pray you wait long enough to get what you deserve.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
