Especially for this control freak.
Maybe that's why God does it, to stretch me.
“This is how God works. He puts people in positions where they are desperate for his power, and then he shows his provision in ways that display his greatness.” David Platt
Waiting....on so many things. Trying to be patient.
Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary. Isaiah 40:31
Reminding myself that God has brought us through so much more, why would He suddenly not? When I say it out loud it sounds ridiculous. Faith.
Once again, it comes down to Faith. My word for the year keeps popping up.
I take it as God reminding me.
He is faithful. He will not leave me, nor forsake me. Seems like such a "duh" statement. Of course He won't. Sometimes our heads and hearts don't meet up though and the doubt sets in.
That's where I am. Pushing down the doubt and stepping out in faith.
"These trials have come so that your faith-of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire- may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed." 1 Peter 1:7
