The unknown is such a dark place. A lot of questions, without immediate answers. Wonder. What ifs. Plans, just in case.
You see, no matter how much we plan, we lay out our day, our year, our life… HE is Sovereign and in control.
We just need to be obedient. Keep ourself close… a piggy-back-type-clinging-around-the-neck of our Savior, close.
After all, if He seems far away, who moved? Not Him.
When we choose to trust, in all that comes with the unknown, He will make all things beautiful. He will unveil His story.
His Best, for us.
I’m in the waiting…
IN THE WAITING – Greg Long
Pain
The gift nobody longs for, still it comes
And somehow leaves us stronger
When it’s gone away
Pray
I try and pray for Your will to be done
But I confess it’s never fast enough for me
It seems
the hardest part is waiting on You
When what I really want
Is just to see Your hand move
I want a peace beyond my understanding
I want to feel it fall like rain
In the middle of my hurting
I want to feel Your arms as they surround me
And let me know that it’s okay
To be here in this place
Resting in the peace that only comes
In the waiting
Time
Time to let it go and just believe
Trusting in what no one else but You can see
Free
Freedom from the fears that close me in
When I can’t get beyond where I have been, but then
Again
The silence doesn’t mean that I’m alone
As long as I can hear
That I am still Your own

I think I am the queen of waiting! lol I am not planning this year- planning has gotten me no where in the past 2 years except for disappointment. But Lord Willing, the waiting will end in 2010, and I will be a mommy! 🙂
