Don't panic..just wait.

I was just reading some scripture and I was reminded that many times we feel things are not working out or things are going wrong or we just can't get it right etc. We get impatient and start looking for other gods that will hasten our predicament. How much better if we can just stand fast and wait. Are we not believers that God has a plan? Where then is our faith?



Ex 32:1 Now when the people saw that Moses delayed coming down from the mountain, the people gathered together to Aaron, and said to him, "Come, make us gods that shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him."



Ac 1:4 And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, "which," He said, "you have heard from Me;

So true!!  Good reminder.

Altho going thru a trial is tougher than it looks.  I am amazed at some of our forum family who tell us of something but then trust God completely, when I think maybe I couldn't have held it together.

I used to be in the "faith message" :-[ and thought that was the be all end all!  |Now I am thinking pride is right up there!

Hi Jeff,

It takes a lot of faith to stand and wait, and believe in God's plan for us.

After Katrina we lived in a fema match box they call a trailer for 3yrs. During those 3 yrs I prayed ever night before bed and ever morning when I woke up for God to give me the strenght to carry on. To help me fine a place I can afford. To keep my family safe and together. It took 3 yrs but All the above came to pass. We are all healthy, safe and now we have our first house together.

Thank you Jesus,

Darren
