A Hard Lesson to Learn

Promise of the Day:
"Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield."
(Psalm 33:20)

Prayer:
To patiently wait for something, Lord, is a difficult task. I have done a lot of waiting in my lifetime but I am not sure I can say I have even yet learned to be "patient" with my need of waiting. I am reminded of the little boy told to sit down. He finally did so, but he declared he might be sitting on the outside, but he was still standing on the inside. So with me, Lord. I may look calm and patient while waiting, at least on the outside, but inwardly I am 'pacing'. May I learn in my waiting to just rest in You, commune with You my friend, and know that all is well. You are my help and protection. Amen
