I feel like my whole life has been in the waiting room. Waiting for my dreams to be a reality. Waiting for the sun to rise on new opportunities. I know that God is preparing me for a very special life but sometimes I still find it hard to wait to receive it. Before I can be blessed I have to be prepared to receive the blessing so right now I feel like I'm a piece of clay on a cool table being kneed by the Potter. The result will be beautiful but the process to shape the clay up is often rigorous. I've had to cut negative habits, grow positive ones, and maintain a strong foundation of God, love and family because for me that is what life is about.
God has shown me so much through my senior year of college up until now and I haven't had to travel the world to see it. He opened my eyes up to the most amazing things that have been in my own home, church, state, and circle of friends. That's how purposeful God is. Often through impatience we jump ahead of God's plan in our lives or we simply abandon them for what WE think is better. Sadly, that often results in anguish and disappointment. That's why I am trying to wait on the Lord. I know that it's best and He is going to give me exactly what I need and He knows the desires of my heart.
So...in short, I'm still waiting. But as the Bible says "Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord." Psalms 27:14
