Deep within the recesses of my heart, the Lord is the object of my musings.
My soul is drawn to run after Him because His love is better than wine.
I will rejoice and be glad as I remember His love.
His words are more sweet. Yes, He is altogether lovely.
As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God
Psalm 42 verse 1 and Song of Solomon 1.
Waiting on God in Hope.
When we wait on the Lord, it is not because He is slow or forgets to be kind to us. Waiting can seem very long. We do not hear or see any difference. He is not subjected to time like humans. We are born, live a little, and then we die. ( Ecclesiates 3 verse 1. To everything, there is a season.)
Time is not His enemy. It is His creation.
( Genesis 1 verse 5. The evening and the morning were the first day.) He dwells in eternity where time and the ravishes of time can never touch. Yet, God remembers what we are. He remembes we are frail creatures, and we go back to the earth as dust.
(Psalm 103 verse 14. He knows our frame and remembers we are dust.)
At the appointed time, He will come through. It will be for us perfect. We have only to trust Him.
I know it is hard. But He knows how this story ends and how it started. He is faithful.
(Isaiah 46 verse 9 to 13…
I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me. Declaring the end from the beginning, and from the ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I purposed it, I will also do it. Hear me, I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry.)
Amen
Fear not for I am with thee
God does not forget His promises
And can never go back on His word.
He is not a man that He could lie.
Plain and simple, we can take Him at his word.
A promise given, is a promise He will keep.
And the Lord appeared unto him the same night and said…fear not, for I am with thee and will bless thee, and multiply they seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.
Genesis 26 verse 24
