Have you had your Joy Juice
today? You may have to wait for God’s
best plan, but His joy is all along the way!
Is there anything harder than
waiting?! I’ll admit, I am not very good
at it! Whether we are expecting something good, bad or unknown, it’s hard to
wait! What about unanswered
prayers? Do you find it difficult to
wait on God’s plan? Many of us will
confess that we try to “help” God when He doesn’t seem to be moving fast
enough.
That’s what Sarah did! She was too
old to have child…or so she thought….though God had PROMISED. So she ‘helped Him’
by putting her own plan into action. And
you know that story…She ultimately regretted that move. We can understand Sarah’s impatience. She’d waited 90 years for a baby; it looked
as if it was not going to happen with Plan A.
So she went to Plan B; she eventually found out she had made a major
mess!
Is there something you’ve asked God
for and you are getting impatient that He has not yet answered that prayer? We should learn from Sarah and realize that
the waiting, may be a part of His plan. Stand firm, unwavering in your faith,
and trust God completely for His perfect timing.
May we remember that “God is not bound by what usually happens;
he can stretch the limits and cause unheard of events to occur.”* Trust God for indescribable joy!
