This is my call.
To wait.
My strength is found
when I wait upon You.
To wait.
Happily.
Content.
Expectant.
Hopeful.
I am called to remember
hope is a person,
not an event or process.
Hope is found in a relationship,
not an activity.
Connection,
not to-do lists.
I am called to remember
joy comes in the morning.

Waiting is not wasting.
I will steward my now
until my “not yet”
is my reality.

Why do we resent waiting?
I think we don’t get it.
Don’t get time.
We think time is a race.
Hurry to the finish.
Or time is a thief.
Stealing precious years.
When was the last time
you saw time
as a friend?
A gift?
An opportunity
to see beyond
the bustle and boom
of a society
hell-bent on hurry?

The best
isn’t always
the fastest way.
Abraham knew this.
Joshua knew this.
Jesus knew this.
God, who lives outside of time,
He knows this best of all.

Time can be your friend.

Waiting is worth it
when you wait on Him.
On hope,
A person,
A good Father,
Whose plans for us are
always good.
God is worth waiting upon.
This is my call.
To wait.

But they that wait upon the LORD
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings as eagles;
they shall run, and not be weary;
and they shall walk, and not faint.
Isaiah 40: 31
