” Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.” James 1:12 

As a child of God, I know how nerve racking it is to want something so bad ( a job, your own business, to get married and start a family etc). To know that you have the skill set, the education, qualities  That you’re the right fit for. To find out that your waiting on someone to make that decision and let you know if you truly are the right fit for what your seeking. One think I am sure of is that God has your back. You prayed about it thing you wanted (in a lengthy prayer) giving God full details of the item your stressing out about. Now try something out of your comfort zone. Romans 12:12 “Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.”

I know…How about you give him PRAISE about it. I mean a true Zion from the mount top praise. Tell God how amazing he is, that he is your provider. That there is no sweet name then his. Just the calmness of his name fulling out of your month for praise for him is being you closer to the patience that is needed to wait on him.  Lamentations 3:25 “The LORD is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.” Every time the prayer request comes to mind. Rejoice in knowing that waiting on the Lord comes with the reward that he knows the time and the hour for the blessings he wants to rain on you.

Relax in knowing that stepping out in faith to seek the opportunity you wanted that you took the steps to trust that GOD will work things out in your favor. Proverbs 3:5-6  “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” When you wait on the Lord, he gets your desire. You get to rest knowing that you didn’t have to forces pieces in places that don’t fit. Your life doesn’t have to be a puzzle when God is in it. That he will give you an complete work that not missing any parts. Where you thought you were seeking a small opportunity, because you waited on him God will place you in charge. Where you didn’t think anyone will marry you he sent you across country and your soul mate found you.

Where you thought you were going to have to take out a loan with high interest rates to start up your company he will send you a business already started waiting for a CEO. What not try God. Why not wait and see his works.
