Waiting...

Not sure where I want to go with this thought. But I
was just thinking today about how happy I am. Not
exactly sure if I can blame my happiness on my
circumstances and that is why I give God the credit
for my joy. Now what does waiting have to do with all
of this?? Now don’t get me wrong waiting on the Lord
is a good thing but waiting anxiously on something is
a bad thing and that is the kind of waiting I am
going to talk about.
It seems like we are always waiting on something. Waiting to get a driver’s license, waiting to graduate from high school, waiting to get a car, waiting to get done with college, waiting to get married. I can list a lot of “I can’t wait for….” phrases. But why do we always want to go to that next step?? Maybe it is because we are discontent…. maybe we should stop waiting and look at what we have now for we don’t know what is going to happen tomorrow. So lets focus on the Lord today and wait for Him to bring tomorrow :)
I think that’s why I am happy because even though I can’t wait on a lot of things to happen I can however meanwhile learn to know my God better! And guess what? We don’t have to wait on anything to take that important step of walking with the Lord.
