No matter how much we plan or what our true intentions are, life may not always follow our expectations. We can become frustrated by circumstances that do not live up to our standards. However, there is a different approach that we may consider. We can watch and wait for God to reveal His will in our lives!
Even though things may not always be what we expect, God is always what we know. God is perfect and unchanging. He is also love, compassion, grace, and mercy. When things around us are causing alarm or are not going how we think they should, we do not have to panic. We can watch with hope. We can wait with confidence. We can know that God will hear us and we can prepare to hear Him. Our trust in the Lord is not misplaced. He will respond to our needs!
Watch and wait on God and then hear His guidance for your life!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your promises in my life. Help me to watch and wait on You, then help me to hear and follow Your will for my life. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
