Lately it seems that I have spent most of my time waiting. Waiting at stoplights. Waiting in lines. Waiting for something to start. Waiting for something to end. Waiting for cold syptoms to subside and for my body to completely heal. Waiting for answers to prayer. Waiting for a miracle regarding a circumstance in my life. Waiting to hear what God has for me.

It’s hard to be patient while waiting. I find myself trying to figure out ways to speed up the process, only to realize that all of my striving is in vain and I’m back where I started. Many of the situations in this season of my life are now out of my control. There isn’t anything more I can do. I’ve exhausted all of my own resources and now I must wait. (sigh)

I stumbled across these song lyrics a couple of weeks ago. This is my confession for today.
