Prayer
The Perfect Time
"So let's not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don't give up." Galatians 6:9
Father, sometimes while I'm waiting for your answers to my prayers, I get tired. Forgive me, Lord. I know you are always working, sometimes where I can see and sometimes behind the scenes. I know that you are never still! Give me endurance while I wait, Lord, just as you give patience to the vintner as he awaits the arrival of grapes on the vine. Help me to see that during the times of stillness, you are busy putting your plan into action. I trust you, Lord. Thank you for always remembering me! I will keep looking to you, knowing that at the perfect time, your will will be made known and your plan will be revealed in a wonderful harvest. Thank you! In Jesus' name, amen.

Yes, these are some of the most difficult times to pass through. I for one sure do not wait easily or quietly, but He is teaching me to do both. As our reasons for being in this period are similar, I can identify with your distress and encouraged by your faith. I have been sharing my journey with you on Mondays as well.
