WAITING...

Waiting keeps me still while I look forward to

meeting a friend
receiving a gift
hearing some news
or anything that needs time to come my way

It may make me feel

anxious
eager
desperate
or just plain impatient

Waiting does require time and time in itself is a gift

I can browse through some books in the bookstore while waiting for my friend at the mall
I can prepare a nice thank you note while I wait for a gift
I can move on to other matters while I wait for some news, a result of something maybe

Waiting, then, is also a gift in itself
And the best wait of all is NOW

Yes, NOW is the time to LIVE and to LOVE
For LIFE in itself is a series of WAITING 
Waiting for HIM to come and to bring us HOME

You always come up with the right words for me. I have been thinking that God is making me wait. Meanwhile it made me understand a lot of people and things around me. I love this Pam!
