W.A.I.T. (Wishes Acquired In Time)

Psalm 62:5 –“My soul, wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from Him.”
     Following up on the blog discussion from yesterday about ‘work’; let me interject an important caveat. As we work through our journey and strive to accomplish the purpose of our destiny it is imperative that we not rush ahead of God. Full steam ahead is a good motivation point and like most of us, I am ready to put down the full throttle; but we must be sure that we do not rush pass the pace and status that God has appointed for our progress nor do we want to overstep the progressive learning curve that is needed in each level of our journey.
     Be alert – stay focused – and keep moving. Waiting does not necessarily mean non-movement; but implies that as we make progress we evaluate each new step as it aligns with God’s plan. Remember that no man is an island and we are a community of believers that encompasses the Body of Christ. Along this thinking it makes it easy to recognize that all of our actions are intertwined and what one of us does often affects/benefits/impacts others more so than ourselves. So as we make our way through our life experiences we must be mindful of following God’s timing and the impact it has on our triumphs and our service to others.
     Every day is a good day; it is up to us to make it a GREAT day. Don’t be distracted; stay focused on your purpose. Be blessed! Dr. JoAnn
