Waiting on God

Have you been waiting on God? Are you waiting for him to answer your prayers? Are you waiting for him to give you direction? Are you waiting for your calling to be revealed? Waiting.... waiting.... waiting. Sometimes it seems that is all we do is wait on God. In fact, I believe that everyone waits at some point in their life.
However, the question is what do you do with the time while you are waiting? Do you get upset with God because he hasn't revealed the answer to you in your time? Do you plead to him over and over again with worry he will never reveal it to you? Do you spend hours stewing over it?
Well, fret no more. The Bible says to "Praise God in all circumstances", so that is what should be done. After all, God already knows the answer. He already has the plan in place for you. He has you in the palm of his hand. Then, praise God. He is taking care of it.

One last thought. Think of God's plan for your life as a birthday present. When a child is going to receive a present for their birthday, they wait with total excitement. They dream about what it might be, but they don't fret about it. They just know that it is going to be something wonderful. Something that someone picked especially for them. They are happy, and so it should be for us. God has something very special planned for each of us, and that plan is a gift from our heavenly father. We need to be waiting with expectant joy...and praising God while we wait.
