Waiting, waiting, waiting.
Waiting for the waiting to end.
Waiting for the prayer to be answered.
Waiting for God to do something to bring relief.
But in the frustration of waiting,
Sometimes we forget to notice the meantime.
For in the meantime, God brings enough for today.
In the meantime, we see His strength in our weakness. We get so focused on the desired outcome
We forget how much He does in the journey.
And though we pray for change,
We can also recognize His being enough for today.
Jesus is our manna for this moment and the next.
His Life within brings strength and patience;
Hope, peace and light in the midst of darkness.
I am called to believe He will be enough.
And when I recognize His Life within,
Circumstances may not look different right away,
But my outlook will completely shift
As I walk in hope and Life through any valley of shadow.
Sometimes we are stuck in the hallway,
Wanting the door to open so badly.
But God reminds us He is with us,
Filling even our bleak hallway with the sweetness of His Life.
Lord, even when your path takes me through the valley of deepest darkness, fear will never conquer me, for you already have! You remain close to me and lead me through it all the way. Your authority is my strength and my peace. The comfort of your love takes away my fear. I’ll never be lonely, for you are near. Psalm 23:4 TPT
