Waiting


In moments where the unplanned or unexpected happens there are two choices - to give up or to keep going. My heart feels heavy in light of some recent life events and my initial response is to get angry. Thankfully, last night while I was trying to regain focus and understanding, God led me to Psalm 27:

"The Lord is my light and my salvationwhom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life- of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked advance against me to devour me, it is my enemies and my foes who will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confidentOne thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock...I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lordbe strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."

Because of God's love I won't give up - especially on other people - but I will wait on God, trust in Him and be confident in his will.
