That Moment Between the Waiting and the Blessing
It is the most tumultuous time that produces two types of people
There is a grace to waiting for something.
It takes grace.
Waiting for something probably takes more of a herculean effort than trying to lift a car with one hand. Waiting for something you cannot see is perhaps one of the most troubling times of any person’s life.
Never cut short your waiting with compromise. Simply put, the waiting’s not over until the waiting’s done.
~Duke Rohe
For example, I write a lot about the times my husband and I struggled, so I have plenty of stories. One, in particular, is the time rent was due. It was 2009, and we fell behind just a little and did not want to ask for help. Instead, we decided to pray while hoping. Sure, we worked our butts off, but we made sure to pray. We went to Church, and I did something a bit extra.
I found a digital wallpaper of some fairy with bright orange hair and ivory skin. She was the princess of fortune, I believe. I did not pray to her, but I kept that wallpaper as inspiration.
