America is a wonderful country to live in! We have so many luxuries and wonderful opportunities afforded to us...we can chase dreams...we have freedoms...our nation crys equality...She is the land of the free and the home of the brave!
I have noticed though that in a land so accustomed to pursuing the AMERICAN dream, a land where we say things like I can earn it and I deserve it, we tend to miss the beauty in the wait. I say beauty, because something special happens in this place. I have to confess I TOTALLY dislike waiting! I will avoid that line at the amusement park that is the longest, I will put back my bread and milk at the grocery store instead of waiting in that long line, just because we are about to get blasted by a NOR'easter, I will hang up the phone if I am put on hold and Black Friday shopping...Geez...I do this every year and this is such a stretch for me...cause I dislike waiting in lines. However, there have been AMAZING things I have waited for...like the 9 months I waited for each of my children to be born...SO worth that wait! I think thats the key...What is the worth of what we are waiting for? The old saying, "Some things are just worth waiting for," is so true! So, whatever God has you waiting for...try and enjoy THIS place...the place of wait...for there is something absolutely beautiful about to be birthed...for all things that have been conceived will be birthed! Conception to birth is a process...a wait...Lord,I will delight in you during the wait.
