Sometimes in life something is so close, so painfully close. You’d do anything and everything in your power to grab hold of it now, right now.
I find myself at one of these moments. I’d do anything and everything to push this next couple of months along.
What I’ve learned in our journey to bring our little one home is this whole process is so completely and utterly out of our control. Our hands are tied.
Wait.
It’s one of hardest things for me to do.
Wait.
Patience.
Trust.
As I look ahead to these next couple months of uncertainty, my hope is to align my posture to one of learning and trusting.
- How can this waiting room be a place of falling more deeply in love with my Savior?
- What lessons does He have to teach me?
- What areas of my life am I clinging to for security other than Him?
- In what ways has He shown me that He is trustworthy and faithful throughout my life?
Music…a gift that brings such comfort to my soul.
If you looked at my most frequent playlist right now, you’d see 10,000 Reasons by Matt Redman.
Bless the Lord O my soul
O my soul
Worship His Holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I’ll worship Your Holy nameThe sun comes up
It’s a new day dawning
It’s time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass
And whatever lies before me
Let me be singing
When the evening comesYou’re rich in love
And You’re slow to anger
Your name is great
And Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness
I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons
For my heart to findAnd on that day
When my strength is failing
The end draws near
And my time has come
Still my soul will
Sing Your praise unending
Ten thousand years
And then forevermore
“Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me. Let me be singing when the evening comes” Matt Redman 10,000 Reasons
This is my prayer.
And I promise to let you all know what’s going on as soon as I’m able…it’ll be worth the wait.
