Waiting

Waiting is perhaps the hardest thing to do in life.

In fact, I hate waiting...

Linda will tell you that I am not very good at waiting.  When she is late, or I'm sitting waiting for her to get out of an appointment, or I have a meeting and others are late, I don't do well.

A certain force of "judgment" creeps in and I find I need to think positively instead of the almost automatic desire to yell..."what are you doing?"  

I hate waiting...

This morning I'm waiting.  My daughter is having her twins delivered by C section.  In fact, she's gone to the delivery/operating room as I write, and I'm waiting for the news...anxiously, prayerfully, expectantly, hopefully...Oh God, please be with her and the twins.

Psalm 62:5-8 (ESV)
⁵  For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him.
⁶  He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
⁷  On God rests my salvation and my glory; my mighty rock, my refuge is God.
⁸  Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. Selah

Sometimes when you wait, you just have to trust!

Peace
