Waiting

Psalm 37:6-8 (NIV)


6 He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,
   your vindication like the noonday sun.
 7 Be still before the LORD
   and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when people succeed in their ways,
   when they carry out their wicked schemes.
 8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
   do not fret—it leads only to evil.

 We wait for letters of medical expedite.  We wait for US immigration.  We wait for God to provide the home to bring Lillyanna (like it?!) home to.  Sometimes waiting is so hard to do.  What a reminder in Psalms though that if we fret, in other words- worry!, it leads to evil!  What a wake up!  More trusting, more waiting.  God is in control, even when our world seems to be spinning out of control.  He has a plan.  He has a purpose.  We just have to wait.

I really like the name! So pretty! Praying God brings you peace during the wait and that all goes smoothly.
