Waiting

Waiting

Have you ever felt like you are just waiting? You’re busy, but you are waiting for something to happen. I have different emotions and descriptions when it comes to waiting.  One of them is trepidation.  I hate that one the most because it feels like you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop. Has anyone ever carried that longer than a day? I have that’s even more annoying. The best way to describe it is like when I was a little girl and got in trouble. My mom threatened me all day with a whoopin, I didn't ever know at what point it was going to happen. That to me was the worst feeling ever and I just had to wait. It was torture.

Waiting with indescribable excitement is another one. That comes over me when I wake up and I feel like something good is going to happen but... there it is again, I don't know what exactly, so I wait. Now this next one is a real head spin, Change or transition. I say it’s a head spin because when this comes nine times out of ten you are comfortable where you are. It could be your physical location, relationship, current mindset, or spiritual life...the list could go on. You’re comfortable and are ready to reject the feeling that comes with this type of waiting.  Hmmm... ignoring it would be a better way of putting it but whether we believe it or not when your destiny comes into play you can try to ignore it all you want. To me, resistance is futile, it is a fight you cannot win. When it is time for His will to be done all things that you once knew, somehow stop working, get taken away, resources dry up, things don’t sound the same, don’t taste the same , stop looking the same (LOL), don’t feel the same and don’t even have the same significance. Whew! That was exhausting and that’s what we do, we work ourselves to exhaustion when all we were supposed to do was WAIT and then proceed when appropriate.

I told my mom the other day I feel like I’m at the airport. She said “what?!”. I’m a little crazy and my analogies sometimes take her on a trip! lol. Anywho, I said, “yeah it feels like I’m waiting to go to my next destination”. She said, “Hmmm…”, that was it! She knew what I was saying, she understands me, lol.

Bottom line, Waiting is a Trip...get it? I’m just playing, try every day in your waiting not to fight the inevitable and that’s Gods will being done. Fighting it is just an unnecessary discomfort. In the end, it’s all for your making, just rest in Him and WAIT for the next destination.

I Love Everybody, But I Love God The Most!
