On Waiting

[eleneariel]

One of the harder things in life for me to do is wait. If there's something I could be doing to further whatever the cause is, I want to do it...get the ball rolling, get the project started, get whatever it is going on the track I think it should go.

But sometimes I'm called to just sit back and wait. Whether waiting for God or waiting for another person, sometimes it's important that I not take over.

God is a good Teacher.

Patience is hard for me too. I think I've learned to be a lot better about it over the last few years though. We just have to trust in God and not in ourselves and our own plans. Everything works out for the good in the end.

Although that's not always what we want or realize. Sadly. :(

Wise words. I too do a lot better than several years ago - but it's still something I'm being taught. Probably always will be.
