It seems that life is so often a constant of change... a constant waiting room of what's next, what lies around the next corner.
Overwhelmed by the waiting rooms of life, the purgatory of the mind and heart. Seasons of patient listening to the will and desires of the One and Only. It seems that much of life is spent in the waiting rooms: justice, reconcilation, forgiveness, strength, healing, friendship, relationship, direction, understanding, transition, wisdom... and the list goes on.
It seems my life has been a waiting room for years. If it's not one room, then it's another: waiting on the decisions of others, waiting on the plans of the Lord, waiting in the knowledge of all things (good and bad) being worked together for GOOD.
Who's good?
Our good.
God's good for those who love Him.
And His word floods my mind...
"Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him." - Psalm 37:7
So the waiting continues. The curiosity of what lies behind the door in the lobby of life overwhelms my heart.
Anxiety builds
excitement builds
anticipation builds
As the door begins to open.
How long Lord? What's next Lord? When will the door open?
"Though the sorrow may last for a night, the joy comes in the morning." -Ps. 30
