Waiting

Patience has never come naturally to me. When I know what I want, I want it now. That in between time, when things are growing and unfolding and you don’t know what will be…that’s a whole lotta nope from me. God’s love is slowly changing that. As I’m growing to trust and believe that God is love and I am His beloved daughter, the waiting has taken a new meaning and I’ve found new grace in it. I can revel in the expectation, I can relax into the unfolding, I can delight in the growth, I can hope for the outcome, and I can do it all knowing no matter what happens I’m held, I’m not alone, and I’m loved by a God who is love and who experiences it all right alongside of me.
