We often live our life's racing. We are always hurrying from one point to the next in the little things and big things in our life. We have an idea of what we want to do, or feel like we should do and if we fall behind, we feel like failures. Or maybe you want to make a big change in your life, and it isn't happening as quickly as you want. Whatever it is for you we need to stop, take a breath and just be still in the Lord. The Lord is not worried about our goals and timelines. He knows what is best for us and when we are ready for it, we just need to trust him and his timing. When we rush things, we are missing out on what God has for us. Sometimes that means waiting longer than we want to, but it will always be worth it. We need to wait on God and his timing.
Prayer:
Lord we thank you for your goodness. We thank you that you have a plan for our life. Help us to be content waiting on your timing, rather than rushing our own. Give us strength and patience Lord. We know your ways are better and we just ask that you keep us on your path, in Jesus name we pray Amen.
Verse:
Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!
Psalm 27:14 ESV
