"THE WAITING PERIOD"

I have been struggling in the waiting periods of my life. I feel that God has been putting me through so many waiting periods. However through and during these waiting periods, I have come to realise that life does not have one waiting period but that in life we will be faced with several waiting periods as we  wait on God to bring something to pass, or to just guide us through certain periods of our lives.


I have been feeling encouraged and so I would in return like to encourage all of you who may be going through waiting periods and  who may be struggling through this period in your life to hang in there and   continue to trust in God for it is only him who can bring things into being and who can make that thing which your heart desires to come to pass. For the Lord our God calls things that are not as though they are.

Jeremiah17 vs 7 says that "Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and whose confidence is in the Lord"

As I go through the struggles of life, I continually have to remind myself and renew my mind  that struggles is not a bad thing as Struggles represent the Lord working in ME, YES ME AND YOU TOO a purpose for my pain.

PAIN without purpose means that God's hand is not in it, he is not involved and as not part in it, but pain with purpose is a cause to rejoice because God will bring you out of it and will make all things beautiful.


The Verse that makes the most sense to me is Ecclesiastic chapter 3 verse 1 which speaks about there being a time for everything. God's timing is perfect therefore we should not rush the seasons of our lives because everything as its own Divine timing.

I have learnt that God knows us well enough and knows that we will overcome any trial and circumstances that he puts us through, he would NEVER put us in a situation that we cannot overcome. Behind every trial is a triumph that's not only ours but God's too.

God is always on time, never behind and we should be happy as we wait on God and learn to pray and never lose patience with God for God's timing is the best time.

Suffering produces perseverance, perseverance produces character, character produces hope and hope does not put us in shame because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy spirit who has been given to us, Romans 5 vs 3-5.


I pray that God gives power to us when we are  weak  and strength to us when we are powerless as he as promised to do in Isaiah 40 vs 29. God made that same promise again in Psalm  115 vs 12 where he says that "The Lord remembers us and will bless us"



I know the BEST IS  YET TO COME. I'm going to be faithful for God knows all the things he has promised will completely become real.
