God Calling ~ The Hardest Lesson
Permalink  
 


"Wait, and you will realize the joy of the one who can be calm and wait, knowing that all is well.  The last and hardest lesson is that of waiting.  So wait.

I would almost say tonight, "Forgive Me that I allow this extra burden to rest upon you even for so short a time."

I would have you know this, that from the moment you placed all in My hands, and sought no other aid, from that moment I have taken the quickest way possible to work out your salvation, and to free you.

There is so much you have had to be taught - to avoid future disaster.  But the Friend with whom you stand by the grave of failure, of dead ambitions, of relinquished desires, that Friend is a Friend for all time.

Use this waiting time to cement the friendship with Me, and to increase your knowledge of Me."

   Wow, that is the hardest lesson.   when my husband asks me "what are you waiting for?" sometimes I just have to say "the still, small voice that tells me to wait and see" and praying, instead of getting all worked up, flying to and fro.  to let the situation open up naturally-- not forcing the petals open (like a rose bud) and ruin the lesson.  thank you.
