Life is a constant stance of WAIT as life is a constant stance of CHANGE.
And when you are done WAITING for the something to CHANGE
there is another WAIT WAITING at your door.
Think about it as you
WAIT this very second to think about what you are WAITING for.
As I have been WAITING with the rest of you during this time
that LIFE as we have known it as come to a standstill,
one WAIT has always been a reality
for you & me & everyone else
as no one is exempt from,
THE LONG WAIT~
WAITING for our real heavenly home.
It takes a lifetime to arrive in eternity.
We are just sojourners,
traveling in temporary bodies
in temporary circumstances
that change from time to time
"BUT there’s far more to life for us.
We’re citizens of high heaven!
We’re waiting the arrival of the SAVIOR, the MASTER, JESUS CHRIST, who will transform our earthy bodies into glorious bodies like HIS own. HE'LL make us beautiful and whole with the same powerful skill by which HE is putting everything as it should be, under and around HIM" (Philippians 3:20-21).
Even though we are in the LONG WAIT
what about the shorter
WAITS of LIFE in the here & now?
How do we WAIT?
We TRUST in GOD
who never changes yet changes us
from WAIT to WAIT to WAIT.
At this moment of time
GOD has been having me TRUSTING HIM so deeply
as I am WAITING on GOD'S TIMING
that is not mine
as I have no control over the circumstances.
It is like I am being squeezed through a funnel~.
STUCK in WAITING,
moment by moment
denying myself
as I am
TRUSTING GOD with every ounce of my being,
as we all should be doing every minute of every day,
yet it is so much easier when LIFE is going smoothly.
But when the bumps come and the road gets crooked
TRUST takes on a whole new meaning
as it really is the only way to stay on the path
that GOD has for each one of us.
Oh TRUSTING WAIT
that makes you & I stop in our tracks,
as I am so stopped
that I can't make things happen to quicken GOD'S plan.
Oh the loneliness & the emptiness of the WAIT
yet the HOPE in the midst
as GOD has placed me here numerous times.
Even though as I get older it doesn’t become easier
but
as GOD loves me so much &as HE loves you so much,
HE doesn't want to leave as we are
because
we were made to be so much more
and it is the
TRUSTING WAIT
where GOD does HIS best work
where we WAIT
as clay in HIS HANDS
in PEACE
in HOPE
in JOY
because we are in
HIS HANDS~
"So we’re not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where GOD is making new life, not a day goes by without HIS unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish celebration prepared for us. There’s far more here than meets the eye.
The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow.
But the things we can’t see now will last forever" (2 Corinthians 4:16-18 MSG).
Oh the WAIT just got shorter
as it is
"LIGHT & MOMENTARY" (listen to the song below)
