Day 9: Delayed Wait


DELAYED

Came the announcement~

A 3 hour WAIT.

DELAYED

Came the announcement~

A 5 hour WAIT

DELAYED

Came the announcement~

A 6 hour WAIT

So what were we going to do~

WAIT!

Why

Because we had no choice

as we

WAITED

with all of the other passengers

and ate gummy bears and chips.

But then

the time came

as we

WAITED

to take our seats.

We put on our seatbelts

and then

DELAYED

Came the announcement

A 30 minute WAIT

on the runway.

We finally took off

to land almost at midnight

and then

DELAYED

came the announcement

as we

WAITED

to pull to the gate.

Finally,

we walked off the plane

to get the tram

that was

DELAYED

to take us to the parking lot

to

again

having to

WAIT.

It was a quite funny day,

because all of us traveling

had no choice

but to laugh

in the

DELAYED

WAITING

Moments

because

Isn't this what life is all about~

THE WAIT~

and

who you are in the middle of it?

WAITING

We knew that we would get to our final destination.

We knew that we were not in control

We knew that we had no choice but to WAIT

and you know what

by the time we said goodbye to

all who we traveled with

we all were chuckling

because

why not?

Now this was such a minor delay in the big book of life,

but sometimes it is those minor delays

that steal away

Peace from the little moments

and

isn't life just

one moment followed by another moment followed by another moment...

whether

so small as a delayed take~off to a

a big delay of awaiting for a miracle.

Either way

God cares about all of our

WAITING MOMENTS

because

He is in all of our

WAITING MOMENTS

just

WAITING

to shower us

with

His Peace that transcends all understanding

that is

always on time

from

WAIT TO WAIT~

From Rags to Riches in the Midst of Wait.
