Now wait my soul,
Don’t rush ahead.
Your God will keep
All that He said
~
While all seems dark,
While silence stands,
He is not far.
You’re in His hands.
~
So wait my soul.
Don’t fret and fear.
Be still and know
Your God is near.

So true: wait for the LORD is so important….. Many times we want to rush things and don’t want to wait. Patience is one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit.

Your poems are so beautiful and timely. They could be songs! I was feeling a little distance this morning, so I cued up some praise songs, sang along, prayed and drew near to Him. I know that He is always near and always faithful. I’m the one who fears and frets, sins and regrets. So thankful for His patience, grace and steadfastness. And thankful for the gift of prose He has given you to share with us! 🙂
