WAIT ON THE LORD

Waiting is easier said than done.  Waiting doesn’t come easy for me.  I’ve been in a hurry all my life.  Pedal faster, drive quicker.  I used to wear my wristwatch on the inside of my arm so I wouldn’t lose the millisecond it took to turn my wrist.  

I wonder if I could’ve obeyed God’s ancient command to keep the Sabbath holy.  To slow life to a crawl for twenty-four hours.  The Sabbath was created for frantic souls like me, people who need this weekly reminder: the world will not stop if you do.  Isaiah 40:31 promises: “Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.”

Wait on the Lord—He will bring rest to your soul.
