"Lo, this is our God, we have waited for Him, we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation" (Isaiah 25:9).
You pray. Nothing happens. You wait. Nothing happens. Are you waiting for some event to take place, or are you waiting for God?
Waiting can be difficult, but it is in those waiting periods that God is orchestrating events to bring forth His glory in your lives. The very things you question in your life right now are allowed by the divine Music Maker. He is accomplishing His purposes through periods of silence. So wait! God's timing is perfect, so it is worth the wait. During the pause, build a little fence of trust around your life.
"Never think that God's delays are God's denials. Hold on; hold fast; hold out. Patience is genius." —Buffon
Wait for God to work in a wayward heart. Wait for God to work regarding the unborn child. Wait for God to work through your present storm.
God's rewards for waiting for Him are out of this world. "He will save you. "
Savior, I've no one else to
tell
And so I trouble Thee,
I am the one forgot Thee so.
Dost Thou remember me?
—Emily Dickinson
