"Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; do not fret because of him who prospers in his way. Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; do not fret---it only causes harm." (Psalm 37:7-8)
I believe that God has the patent on patience. There is no time zone with Him, no boundaries of time whatsoever. With us, we are consumed with the countless activities, that have to be done in a certain way, and in a certain time.
And in a fast pace society like ours, waiting is a burden, not a blessing.
I have heard people say in times past; Don't ask God for patience, for He will send trials to teach us what it's all about!"
The advice of the Psalmist in our text is very good. "Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him"
In the time that you are waiting for the Lord to show up, and do something in regards to your anxious situation, take that time to fellowship with Him. Take that time to count your blessings, and remember the times when the Lord was faithful. Take that time to pray, and give the Lord your anxiety and frustration, concerning the difficulties you are dealing with.
He is big enough to handle them. Don't get upset with the situation, or with others, don't fret, or keep worrying about what could or couldn't happen. We should always hope in the Lord. That in His way, and in His time, He will orchestrate our deliverance, and bring us to a point of peace. GP
