Wait, Wait, Wait

Why is it so hard for us to wait on the Lord, I have seen recently in some individuals who are going through divorce and some of those who have been divorced for a while that they want to rush entering into a new relationship instead of taking time to seek that which God wants in their lives.

I was listening to Matt’s message on Sunday and it hit me how much this message has to do with every aspect of our lives and I couldn’t help but think about all of those who are going through separation and divorce right now and how this applies to it.

Isaiah 9: 6 foretells the coming of Jesus and describing him as Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Prince of Peace…I decided to look up the word “Counselor” and “Counsel” in the dictionary, these words are defined best as “advisor” and “guidance from a knowledgeable person”.

Wow who could be more knowledgeable that our Lord and Savior, and if this is the case why would we want to do anything in our lives without first seeking HIS counsel and advise.

Philippians 4:6 tells us “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”

We need to take this time of singleness in our lives and seek God and turn everything over to Him and wait on Him. For when we seek that which is His purpose for our lives then “Life Happens”.
