Lamentations
3:24-26
“The Lord is
my portion,” says my soul,
“therefore I will hope in him.”
The Lord is good to those who wait for
him,
to the soul who seeks him.
It
is good that one should wait quietly
for the salvation of the Lord.
Isaiah
40:31
but they who wait for 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.
Waiting on Me means directing your
attention to Me in hopeful anticipation of what I will do. It entails trusting
Me with every fiber of your being, instead of trying to figure things out
yourself. Waiting on Me is the way I designed you to live: all day, every day.
I created you to stay conscious of Me as you go about your daily duties.
I have promised many blessings to those who wait on
Me: renewed strength, living above one's circumstances, resurgence of
hope, awareness of My continual Presence. Waiting on Me enables you to glorify
Me by living in deep dependence on Me, ready to do My will. It also helps you
to enjoy Me; in My Presence is fullness of Joy.
Psalm
16:11
You will show me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
