More waiting

God continues to speak to my heart about this issue of waiting on and trusting in Him. This comes once again from my devotional Becoming a Woman Who Walks With God. Just a few quotes that reminded me of God's sovereignty and brought me His peace as I wait on some answers to prayer:

Psalm 37:7 "Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him."

"How I need to remember that my timing may not be God's timing. He alone knows when and what will best accomplish His purposes.
He tells us to rest - to be calm and peaceful; and to wait - to anticipate, to count upon, to watch for Him."

"It is our duty and privilege to wait upon the Lord in service, in worship, in expectancy, in trust all the days of our life. Our faith will be a tried faith, and if it be of the true kind, it will bear continued trial without yielding. We shall not grow weary of waiting upon God if we remember how long and how graciously He once waited for us." - Charles Spurgeon
