Wait for the Lord
Psalm 27:14
Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord.
There is such hope in this verse. That hope can only spring from a heart that trusts fully in the Lord. For what else upon this earth could possibly give us real hope in the face of adversity?
When we trust God, we can patiently wait for His perfect timing. However, waiting patiently upon the Lord is not a passive thing. Henri Nouwen describes waiting as anticipating that each moment may be the moment. He suggests an up-on-the-balls-of-our-feet posture ready to seize on the next cool thing God is going to do in our lives.
Be strong and take courage!
