When Your Not " There" Yet.

No one likes the wait and the journey can get tiresome. No one likes the unknowns. But the truth that holds me fast is this: I wait on the Lord, and NOT in my own strength. Your on a road with ups and downs. Twists and turns, joys mixed with sorrow. Lessons are learned. Refinment is taking place. And you know it's really for your good, and His glory. God is really doing something here, and even though it hurts a little at times, most real change does. For with change, something old is shed, and something new is put on. Like trading slavery for freedom, your will for His, your plan for His plan. Not knowing has never been more peace filled. Why? Because we know and are known fully by the author of our story. We trust His plans for the story of our life. How can we trust Him so? Because anyone who would give their life for ours, is trustworthy. Think on that fellow traveler. The one who plans your walk for each day is constant. Never leaving, always teaching, always offering instruction, and encouragement. He holds out words of life to nourish you for the road ahead. Consider today how much stronger you are now compared to when you first began! Don't get discourage. He who began a good work in you will carry it out into completion. See the road that leads winding into that mountain ahead? It's beautiful, but steep, and He will lead you the entire way! He will never leave you as orphans. He is an ever present help. Don't get weary! Remember who your walking with. He renews your strength! Today is another day to rest in His strength. Be encouraged!!!! You are never alone.
