Waiting on the Lord

I just came back from a conversation where a Christian brother said these refreshing words:  "We're just going to wait on the Lord."  He was talking about a situation in which he and his wife could easily get alarmed, thrown into a frenzy, and start racing around trying to find a resolution.  But seeing the temptation for what it is, they are resisting the impulse of the flesh and listening to the voice of Truth.

I have no doubt that many of you have found yourself in a similar situation.  Perhaps you are in one right now - a circumstance that can throw you into a dither, get you all worried and worked up inside.  Yet in the midst of your inner storm, the voice of Truth whispers,

Be still and know that I am God . . .

Cast all your care on Me, for I care for you . . .

Trust in Me . . .

Commit your way to Me . . .

Delight yourself in Me . . .

Rest in Me, and wait patiently for Me . . .

Several months ago I posted a song that my cousin wrote with this theme in mind.  I think it is a good time to post it again.  I pray it will help you to wait on the Lord.
