Now that I have facebook for a quick thought here or there, I have found that I am not as creative with my blogs. I'm not sure why. I guess it's because I am getting a quick fix.
It would be nice to have something really good to say, or profound. I rarely have anything profound to share. I'm not sure that this is profound, but I did have a different spin from Sunday School today.
We were discussing the verse "They that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength" I realized that I usually focus on the strength part of this verse. But what stood out to me today, is the waiting part. Even if we have good intentions, even if what we are doing is something that God wants us to do "eventually" if we don't wait on God's timing we are running on our own strength and not His. He is so great and mighty and we are so weak. You would think that it would be a no brainer to wait. But waiting is a difficult thing to do sometimes.
It is my hope and prayer that I don't jump ahead of God, but that I wait. I wait for the Lord because I need His strength. I, myself am weak.

VERY insightful! Especially in light of our most recent conversations...one never knows...but HE does!
I'd say this is pretty profound. I think that not only is it difficult to wait upon the Lord, but that we are usually encouraged to do just the opposite in a church setting.
