When you’re in a season of waiting, it’s never just a season of waiting. It’s a season of preparation, self-improvement, giving, and, as always, sanctification.
Waiting is not passive. It’s active. Be prepared for what you are praying for. You might not know when, but when He speaks, it happens fast. Be ready for it.
It’s been 5 years since I wrote this.
And I’ve learned a few more things about my Father.
He’s gentle, and so kind.
A season may be waiting season for us for something, but He often does not use the same word, if we don’t see things they way He does.
And let’s be honest, we don’t. His ways are always higher.
Lean into the Lord and abide in any and all seasons. There’s something deeper. There’s always something deeper. A waiting season means an active one in learning about the Lord. Your Heavenly Father. Who is so excited and happy and delighted that you want to get to know him and be with him and spend time with Him.
You may never feel ready for what He has for you. That’s not the point. The point is trust in the Lord. And maybe that’s the lesson He wants you to learn. We are all there.
But trust me. Whatever you’re waiting for, is never better than this exact journey He’s taking you on, if you would surrender that and walk with Him and say, “Jesus, you know my heart. Let’s spend some time together.” And do this daily.
And when that day happens, He will yet take you on another journey. Then, you’ll find new joy walking with the Lord. And that beauty will only get more and more beautiful.
God bless 🙌
