Wait

As you sit at your computer, sit by your phone to read these words, we are waiting.

I hate waiting.

And yet, waiting is life and life is waiting. We wait for things to begin and wait for things to end. We wait in and for everything from the right person to marry to the right line in the grocery store. We curse it when it inconveniences us and bless it when it brings good news, but the one thing we can’t do is escape it. There is no express lane for the verdict of doctors. There is no easy button for life trials and ‘thorns in the flesh’.

Today, while we wait for Chase and maybe we hold our breath and say one more prayer as he drifts off to sleep, the truth is that Chase is one of many. How many people sit someplace waiting for life-changing news, life-stabilizing news?

Are you waiting?

Are you called to partner with someone who is waiting?

Today and always, we stand with you in the wait. You are not alone.

These things might be painful, but there is and will be beauty in them. There will be hope in them because God is good. And to this, we cling.

I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and in his word I hope; my soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning. Psalm 130:5-6

Moment by moment.
