Wait

Wait

A few years ago I was challenged to come up with a word for the year.

My word for 2015 has been WAIT.

Wait on the Lord.

Every week I would read a scripture on Waiting on the Lord

or read a devotion with the application being Wait on the Lord.

I learned that I am not patient when it comes to waiting. 

Ive had to lean on the Lord and lean to trust his plan.

I've had to accept doors closing--no wait Slamming shut

while waiting on him to answer.

While waiting on the Lord:

• I've reconnected with old friends.
• I have been encouraged by friends who are waiting on the Lord.
• Ive been blessed by an amazing team that walks through life with me.
• Ive had the opportunity to serve in Jamaica, Boston, and  local community.
• Ive been blessed to babysit for families and build lasting friendships with the moms.
• I've had friends text me they are walking through this journey with me.
• Ive learned to cry out to the Lord.
• In the waiting period God has been at work.
• Ive grown in the waiting period.
• I'm still waiting for the Lord to answer but while I wait I will not get discouraged- I will trust him.
• IF you are waiting on a prayer to be answered-let me encourage you to keep going before the Lord.
• PRAY. PRAY. PRAY.
• Hold tight to scripture...

Remember you are not the only one that has waited...(Abraham waited, Hannah waited, etc)
Psalm 27:14 KJV Wait on the Lord; be of good courage 

and he shall strengthen thine heart; wait I say on the Lord. 

Blessings,

Jenn
