While I'm Waiting

I am terrible at waiting but I know that God has a better plan for my life than I do. I can't write well and I can't formulate creative phrases that will capture your attention, so I am just going to post a song. This is pretty much how I feel:

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident
Takeing every step in obedience
While I'm waiting
I will serve You
While I'm waiting
I will worship
While I'm waiting
I will not faint
I'll be running the race
Even while I wait

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve you while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord

I am getting better though. It is still difficult to know that I may not get what I hope for now. It is comforting however, to know that in the end, I will get what I want because what I will want is what God want (Psalms 37: 4). We'll see what happens. I recently heard a quote: what you think about is what you care about and what you care about is what you chase. This is pretty self-explanatory and I really think it is true. If I start think about God, I will start to care about God, and I will start to chase after Him. It is crazy though, we can't do it... But it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose (Philippians 2: 13).

Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. - Colossians 3: 2
