Psalm 27:14 (NKJV) 14 Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!
Things change and this requires us to change with them at times. The thing that drives us crazy is when something changes and we don’t always know what changes to make on our end.
Not long ago, we were faced with a complete change in our situation. We were like, “OK God, you have our attention, what do we do?”
Everything was different. We tried to keep on doing what we were used to doing, hoping things would go back to the way they were. But it was not helping or working. So, we began to just pull back, pray, listen and watch.
It wasn’t long before God began to give us direction. We had to make some serious changes. Big changes from what we were used to doing and the way we were used to doing them.
I’ll admit, new stuff stresses me out. I like repetition and routine. I like knowing what I need to do and just doing it.
I had to learn that when change comes, I can’t lose heart. I can’t throw in the towel and think that everything we were doing before was pointless and a complete waste of time.
There are steps in life, and these steps will take us from one place to another.
God will help us find the right steps to take as we wait on Him. And while we are waiting, He will teach us to be of good courage.
That means no grumbling, whining, being frustrated, or acting out in anger. Simply wait on Him with a right attitude. He will strengthen our hearts.
