We must decide whether we will trust God and His Word, or not. Trusting God will often require us to wait upon Him, sometimes a long time. This morning I read from “Streams in the Desert” a passage I would like to share with you:
“After waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised” (Hebrews 6:15)
“Abraham was tested for a very long time, but he was richly rewarded. The Lord tested him by delaying the fulfillment of His promise. Satan tested him through temptation. Sarah tested him through her worrisome temperament. Yet he patiently endured, not questioning God’s truthfulness and power or doubting God’s faithfulness and love. Instead, Abraham submitted to God’s sovereignty and infinite wisdom. And he was silent through many delays, willing to wait for the Lord’s timing. Having patiently endured, he then obtained the fulfillment of the promise.
Beloved, God’s promises can never fail to be accomplished, and those who patiently wait can never be disappointed, for believing faith leads to realization.” (Streams in the Desert, September 11)
Faith Leads to Realization. What a powerful insight!! Blessings on all of you.
Moving
Carol and I are selling our home in Kansas City and moving to the northwest side of Nashville, Tennessee. We sense the Lord's call upon our lives to make this transition and already a new chapter has begun.
