The world teaches us
that whatever we want
we can have it now.
Instant gratification
is the way of the world.
However, it is not
the way of our Lord.
What we must do
to please God is to
offer up our requests
to Him than wait.
He will answer us
in His time and
we must realize
He does not live by
any time restrictions.
He is infinite and so
He thinks in terms
of forever.
While we sit here and
wait for an answer,
He is testing us.
He asks that we
be patient, not like
the world that says
we can have it now.
When it is the right time,
He will provide the answer
which may or may not be
what we wanted to hear.
But we can know
it is His will and,
in the long run,
it will be best of us too.
