Waiting upon the lord

Having been single for some time, i somehow always got excited when I was asked out on dates. The men who would ask me on dates were amazing men, all ladies who know them would agree with me. This one time i was listening to music and I thought to myself, my birthday is in November and since I want my husband to be my gift then why say no?! I went on one date, there was just no connection, no peace within me and i knew right then that this whole “date thing” is not worth my time. I decided to go back to my creator and talk to him…. He said the very words he had said before “Wait in me and i will let my will be done when its time”
But God? why not now? i have been waiting…these are the questions I asked but i knew very well that i should do as He said. I started with meditating on the word, the load of negativity and loneliness that was replaced with Gods presence made me realize what a mess i was. Each day i had fellowship with God, i felt a sense of peace and fullness being poured into me. I felt love embracing me and Joy leaping in my heart! I knew He was doing something great through his spirit in me. Today i stand, a young confident lady who knows who she is in Christ, one who is content and not just waiting on God but waiting in him.
Isaiah 40: 31 “Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faith.”
Having placed my hope in God has really strengthened me, it has made me continue on this journey(life) even when Single. When you let God take the initiative, God will work. You need to Cease trying and just start trusting him and praising Him for what He is going to do! He will answer when the time is right. Yes your friends might be engaged and in Good relationships but when your time comes for you to reap, you will realize how it was worth sowing <31966919_486749208114713_924333743_n

  1. I read the same scripture this week and was like; I'm waiting but I'm getting tired and definitely don't feel strengthened. I immediately realized afterwards that I need to decree and declare that word until it takes effect in my life..
