I'm No Fool
Only a fool would run at this point. Or maybe a person with some sense. But not me. I'm no fool and sometimes I may not have any sense. It's all okay, though, because God understands me perfectly. Again, I say, only a fool would run at this point. What am I talking about? This old waiting game I should be so very good at by now. For the most part, I'm okay with it. But sometimes, it really gets my water boiling, you know what I mean?
I thought the ball was rolling. I went to the doctor, got the fertility medicine. Now I am waiting to take it. I can't take it until a certain something comes to visit, and it apparently decided to reschedule. So I am not sure what the deal is with it all, and why I am at this stand still...yet again. However, I know what I was promised, and that is what I am holding out for.
If I didn't know God and lived solely on my own abilities...I would run. I would have given up by now. I would have run for the hills and found another solution. I would find a way to get what I wanted, and when I wanted it. But I don't live for me. I live for the Almighty God. I am His. There is purpose that He has ordained for my life. I trust that purpose. Only a fool would give up after waiting so long for a dream to come true. Only a fool would take this awesome love that has been poured out over me, and let it fade away over a silly desire. I may feel pressured, and impatient, and aggravated. But those are just feelings. Jesus is my truth, and it's the truth that will set you free. Not good feelings. So on the truth I will stand, even when I'm not feeling good about it. I will speak this truth and eventually, my flesh will align with it. So I will continue to serve and worship God and stand on His word. I'm no fool. God has given me way too much for me to throw it away because I am a little impatient. I am aggravated, but I will wait.
If you're waiting on something today, be encouraged that God has not forgotten you. He doesn't get distracted by anyone. He doesn't put you on the back burner for later. He is a now kind of God, and He is very attentive to us. We never get overlooked. Your time is coming. Be patient. He is always right on time. Here's some scripture to help you out :)
Habakkuk 2:3 (NASB)...
"For the vision is yet for the appointed time;
It hastens toward the goal and will not fail.
Though it tarries, wait for it;
For it will certainly come, it will not delay"
