Hey God, its me!  I have prayed and prayed for this to happen.  Aren’t you listening? Don’t you care?  You seem to answer the prayers of others, why not mine?  Am I a bad person?  Are you angry with me?  What do I need to do now?

Have you ever felt that God just isn’t hearing your prayers?  You have waited and waited and prayed but no answer is forth coming. 

God is in this!  He is still there and wants our best.  Perhaps you and I are overlooking His greater gifts…….. family, friends, our community of faith. 

Just maybe…… while we’re waiting for that something to change, waiting for that answer to prayer, God wants us to open our eyes to the blessings He has already given.

 The Lord blesses us all differently, but He certainly blesses us all, without fail, without end.  It’s just that you and I take many of His blessings for granted.

He offers a bounty of treasures and blessings for our sight and soul through His creation.  He extends multitudes of more mercy and grace than we can grasp or deserve.  He releases more peace and joy in His presence than we can perceive.  He offers lavish love like no other.  Perhaps more than we can sense or see.   

If our visible world falls short of our expectations, or looks less than those around us, we need to focus on His “already” gifts, expecting that He knows exactly what is best for us. 

Through failing health, disappointments, hardships, we need must realize that answers to our prayers may not always come at our timetable. 

It’s the waiting seasons in our life that actually makes us stronger, and braver and more resilient than ever. 

It’s in our waiting season that we find the greatest connection to the One who loves us best!

                                                Just you wait!!!
