Being patient and waiting can be so hard at times.
When life isn't going exactly like we want it to.
Low days that causes us to stop and consider what
is or isn't 'just right' . When we rush into making
choices or decisions instead of considering the
consequences. Most of us can relate to this. I certainly can.
Psalm 40:1-5 tells us of a time in Davids life when he was depressed and at a low place, when he needed rescuing.
Verse 1
"I waited patiently for the Lord, and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry".
Waiting patiently isn't easy, especially for me. I like to ''get things done'' when I think they should be--but maybe that isn't the right timing! My Lord is patient and many times in my life he's waited for me to realize this. When I wait for His directions then it begins to unfold and life gets better. I am at this place now waiting for His timing!
verse :17
"I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh on me
thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
The last 6 weeks has been hard in our life,
making decisions that will change our lifestyle,
waiting and praying over each one and still
waiting for it all to come about.
God has put 'A New Song' in my heart and on my lips.
"I Want my Lord to be Satisfied with me"
One glorious day Jesus came and made me whole
He completely then satisfied my soul.
Now as I face lifes dark troubled stormy sea.
I wonder if He is satisfied with me.
I'm satisfied with God's great redemption plan.
I'm satisfied it's sufficient for all man.
I'm satisfied with his work at Calvary,
but is my Lord satisfied with me.
Lord give me strength, give me courage, make me
bold.
That I may lead some lost sheep into the fold.
That I might stand unafraid to move for thee.
That you might be fully satisfied with me.
Chorus
I want my Lord to be satisfied with me.
I want my life to be what He'd have it be.
And when I come to that great eternity
His smile will say that He is satisfied with me.
As I wait for the next chapter of our life to begin I pray "God's Will be done".
Have a Blessed Sunday!
Sylvia
