Waiting is not an easy thing to do, but there is a lot of it in this world. We knock at each door we are lead to....yet for now the hallway is our home....Waiting.
Why do we neglect to praise Him in the hallway of Waiting? Same reason we neglect to praise Him in any raging sea, we forget {at least momentarily} that He knows best and He wants only the best for us.
But this hallway holds many whispers from our faithful Father of His assurances, His ability, His love, and so many other lessons of His heart. It's as if He has decorated the walls of the hallways of Waiting with beautiful graffiti, if only we take the time to see His brushstrokes. Graffiti in all forms...one beautiful stroke after another.
With all this graffiti how can we neglect to praise Him in the hallway of waiting?
Waiting on Him is different than waiting in long lines. You are waiting for the perfect timing of His plans in your life. Waiting on Him means trusting Him with every fiber of your being instead of trying to figure it out yourself. When you trust Him - when you wait for His timing - He will fill your life with blessings. He will give you strength and joy and hope. And He will give you His Presence - while you wait.
I for one am determined to praise God in the hallways. He deserves my praises whether I can look at earthly things and see what I label "good" or not, HE is Good and HE is Worthy. May I praise Him even until He opens the next door.
His timing is perfect & even His hallways are full of His mercy, glory & beauty. So until God opens the next door for you, PRAISE Him in the hallway!
Blessings,
Dalinda
