Worth the Wait
Have you ever been in a situation where things were taking forever? Like standing in a long line in a grocery store waiting for the cashier to get a price check on a customer’s unpriced item? Or waiting for your turn in the barber’s or stylist’s chair? Or waiting for a big income tax refund but you’ve made the mistake of paper filing and having to wait on IRS manual processing and the US mail system?
On a more serious note, not that those instances aren’t…ever lose your home and the system put in place to help simply gave you a number and told you to “do whatever” until they can get to you. Be it the loss of a home, a family member, a marriage, a job, you are told to ‘tread water’ until land appears.
The story I’m sharing is of a woman in the Bible who found herself in a “do whatever” situation. But after years of “doing” just “whatever” she could to put one day behind the next she found herself in a “worth the wait” windfall. What God did for her; He’s prepared to do for you.
