“Over the years I have learned it is best to wait on Gods timing and follow his agenda instead of following my own plans. Not waiting on Gods plan and acting on your own can have repercussions of a life time filled with remorse and regrets. As humans we may not like to admit this but we do not like to wait. It is our nature. I know I get frustrated and in my daily life I display this at times I am not proud to say, this may be lashing out at someone who has said a comment that meant no harm or when I find myself annoyed that I am stuck behind the slow car in the fast lane when I am late for a meeting or work. We become agitated and irritated, some honk their horns& others may make unpleasant remarks. Sound Familiar??? I have learned that a bad behavior of impatience can be transferred into our daily & spiritual lives. I am guilty of moving on to the next thing without having all the details of HIS plan. A lot of times in our minds we already have it all figured out and we want to move on our terms and not wait on Gods plan. Being impatient at times in the past has caused me to make poor choices due to the fact “I just could not wait any longer” attitude. God always has a reason for making us wait, even though we question the reason for it. There are many examples in the bible where people waited-Daniel, Paul & Joseph just to name a few. It has been said It is in our most difficult times and our waiting that we experience God’s best, his goodness and his faithfulness towards us. When I have felt that my back was up against the wall and the storms of life are raging, with God by my side it is much easier to process and enjoy the promises of God”. I have been patiently waiting over the last 2 months & am continuing to wait at this time for him to show me the path he would like me take. I could have said 2 months ago, I am not going on this Missions trip but I choose to stand back and let God be in control of my circumstance. I am still waiting at this time and will continue to wait as he does his will. My fundraising is currently still on hold at this time & I will continue to keep everyone posted. Thanks for all the encouragement & prayers. “
