A few months ago, my daily devotion was about waiting. It said Waiting builds character. Character is built during the hard times of waiting.
Have
you been waiting for something that seems just out of reach? Or are you
waiting for your THING to happen? I am waiting for things. I am waiting
for my tote bag with all my school work from the past two years to be
returned, I am waiting for my hair to grow, I am waiting for a romantic
walk on the beach, I am waiting to make peace with something, and I am
waiting for my THING to happen.
I guess we all need (at
least I do) to remember that our characters are being built during this
time of frustration. We need to have faith to know that we will be
better because of this period of waiting. We should not allow this
period of time to stop our flights. We should fly in spite of whatever
is or is not happening. You can cry, scream, and holler while you fly,
but you must keep flying. Remember, our blessings will come in God’s
Time, not ours.
The scripture reference for this devotion is:
And
the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ,
after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and
make you strong, firm and steadfast. 1 Peter 5:10
