Proverbs 8:34
Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
WAITING on the LORD is not easy. You work on your self.
Praying Lord... is it my time. I am in your word. I am in community. I am Listening and
ready for you to send me. Is it my time?
I am patiently waiting, watching, discerning the next move you
would have me take.
I am sitting Still
I am sitting Still
I am sitting Still
I am trying to sit still but it is hard.
The world around is growing busier and busier. When I stop to wait on you
LORD , I am restless. I must do something . Fill the still moment with some thing
some one
I am waiting on you LORD.
Sitting on the steps of this overwhelming door. What is behind it .
When is it going to open.
Is is going to open.
I reach for the iron door handle. Maybe it is open now. Checking .Testing. Hoping.
Not open. Now I am pulling and prying on the door. I know I can get it open.
Wasting my energy . Wasting my time. I give up. Surrender this desperate moment to you .
My energy is depleted from the struggle.
I am resting, not by choice, but because there is nothing else I can do.
Now I am Still
Exasperated I lie down. I look up and this enormous door.
In surrender the door is different. I know I cannot control when it opens.
I take a moment to look at it. My focus has been what is behind it.
What do I get behind the door.
When will it happen.
In surrender I recognize it color. A deep cadmium red.
Its shape . The details. The craftsmanship.
In surrender I am relaxed to enjoy thinking about how the door got there.
How it was made.
Who carved the design.
Who has sit on the steps before me.
In surrender I begin to care for the door and its steps.
Preparing for the day it opens.
Enjoying the wait.
Enjoying the beauty of the wait.
Knowing that God Will open the door and the wait is part of the process.
