“I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, And in his word do I hope.”
Psalms 130:5 RV1895 https://bible.com/bible/1922/psa.130.5.RV1895
Today’s verse reminds us of how lucky we are to have a Lord that loves us. We might not get what we want or at the speed we want it, but we can rest assured that the Lord wants the best for us and only He knows what that is.
It can be hard living in a society that praises instant gratification. The world is changing so much. When I was young, there was no internet, WiFi, microwave, satellite tv, nothing. Of course, the way things were were an improvement from my parents’ childhood. But then everything exploded. Technology make everything instantly possible.
Sometimes I worry our society is getting spoiled on the idea that good thing comes fast. I worry that it is difficult for the young to have to wait. I pray the Lord teaches them to trust His word, even if it doesn’t work like a genie’s wish. It is better and it is true.
