The Waiting Game

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. (NIV) Isaiah 55:8-9

I had a friend who was always on the go. Someone once said, “If John was forced to wait at a bus stop, he’d get on a bus going in the wrong direction just to be headed somewhere.”

Does that describe your life when you’re in a waiting mode? Most of us don’t like to wait, whether it’s in a check out line or for God to give us clear direction for our lives. As you wait on God, be careful about moving in a direction just because it’s a way to go. God will always tell you what to do, when you need to know. But, just as His ways are not our ways, His timing is not our timing. . . but His ways and His timing are always perfect.

What are you waiting on?
