Waiting requires patience and discipline. Qualities that grow with use! We so often cry to God to answer 'now', and don't realise that He has to work on us to get us ready for the answer. The psalmist says 'My soul waits for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say more than they that watch for the morning' Psalm 130:6
Through a long sleepless night, the thought of morning light coming for sure, gives a ray of hope. The morning will come and the shadows will flee away! Those that wait upon the Lord do not wait in vain. As sure as the morning breaking, so He will break through and bring a new light.
But the soul has to look for, eagerly anticipate, be sure of, His coming. No casual seeking gains anything. No'hot and cold' receives anything. No double minded person gets an answer. The commitment, the longing, the yearning for God's visitation, has to be from the whole heart. Then, as sure as the morning breaks, so our God will come to you, and in His coming, meet your hearts desire. WATCH!
