Psalm 37:34 Wait on the Lord, And keep His way, And He shall exalt you to inherit the land; When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.
Waiting for someone who is late is hard work. Do you wait a little bit longer in the hope they will turn up or do you give in and make your own plans?
We may well feel like this in our lives and walks with God when we do not see things happening as quickly as we want them to happen; but being patient with God will build character.
God knows how much we will take, knows what will make us stronger and knows what will break us. Do not give up on God because He is constantly working for you in the background when you least expect it!
