Well, I am not very good at keeping up with this blog. I love reading my friends blogs and admire how well written and beautiful they always look. I tend to think that is something I could ever do. I mean, my life isn't really that interesting...what in the world do I have to tell the world? {or whomever reads this} So today I thought I would just write about what is on my heart. And my heart is wondering: What is next?
What is next? Honestly, I do not know. God knows, I am sure of that, but He has not felt the need to clue me in yet. And so here I am, waiting. I am not even sure what I am waiting for. Have you ever felt that way? Just waiting? Or am I alone in this feeling? I find myself thinking I am alone, but then I am reminded that He is always there and He has a beautiful plan for my life. This is something I know but I am struggling to believe it.
At this very moment, I feel thankful for this waiting period, for the Bible says, "Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not be faint." Isaiah 40:31 [NKJV]
Wow!!! That is what I want! Renewed strength in and of its self sounds so refreshing and then you add eagles, running, and walking without becoming tired...that is the kind of strength I need. So I will be thankful for this time of waiting. God is faithful...always. And He will renew my strength.
I didn't know you had a blog, this makes me happy! And, migt I add, this post is beautifuly written. Love the reminder that waiting is okay, even when we feel SO ready for the next chapter.
ReplyDeleteMarcey, I totally know what you are talking about. It can be a challenge to feel at peace in a season of waiting. (((Hugs))) Lean into your Heavenly Father; I know He will hold you close and give you peace.
