Waiting

Waiting can reveal some interesting truths about our lives.  Here are 7 that I mentioned Sunday morning.

Waiting can...

  1. expose a skewed perspective.
  2. challenge your resolve (will to continue).
  3. question your faith (cause us to doubt and 2nd guess God and ourselves).
  4. leave you weary, fatigued, and tired.
  5. lead to frustration and confusion.
  6. make you feel anxious and urgent.
  7. make you think nothing is happening.
The text was Habakkuk 2 and the challenge of what to do while waiting was...

  1. Listen (Hab 2:1).  What is God trying to teach you.  Waiting is often God's reorientation program.
  2. Write (Hab 2:2).  Journal and document what God reveals to you...so you will remember.
  3. WAIT (Hab 2:3).  Consider Psalm 27:14.  Wait for the Lord and trust by faith that He is in control and that His time is the right time.
