While waiting

Waiting...
What are we waiting for?
A better tomorrow?
A future spouse?
A promotion?
An unfulfilled promise?

Whatever it is, I think the best we can do while waiting is to pray.
There is nothing to lose.
Whisper a simple prayer.
God is always listening.

For me, waiting has its good and bad times.
Good is when I feel closer to God because while waiting I spend a lot of my time talking to Him, discussing my future and asking for constant guidance.

The bad is when the wait could sometimes take a toll on me and I feel abandoned and all is hopeless.
When is this wait going to end?

Until now I am still waiting.
Waiting for so many things.
But like they say, keep it to yourself.
Don't tell others because most probably it would not happen.
It has been a long wait but I have nothing to lose but to keep on waiting.
It is the process of waiting that made me grow up, the hard way mostly.
However, I decide to think on the bright side, despite it all I still survived, so I should be thankful because through numerous falls, I got up, once again, and I became much stronger and wiser.

People come and go.
It is also during this waiting period especially, that we really see them for who they are.
Some are encouraging and would pray for your happiness, while some would pretend to comfort you, but secretly they wish that you will NEVER get what you prayed for and some even wish you would be destoyed because their jealousy of you is too deep beyond comprehension.
These types can be easily detected through their attitudes and words that constantly bring you down, making you think that you are never good enough and you would never get your hapiness.
I've come across all three types of people. But they are just a passing trial. It will pass, so we have to be strong
Even though our wait will eventually end, let us never forget the One that has been and always will be with us.

When it gets too hard to bear the waiting period, tell God. Let Him calm you.
I did the same and I'm still doing it. I would read verses to comfort my heart, when all seems hopeless and I feel I am waiting for something that would never come.
And I would get up again and resume my journey.
The wait is never easy. But once we reach our destination, it will be worth it (I am always counting om this promise when I feel down)
So, what would you do while waiting today?
