Waiting

Is there something you are awaiting news on? A job? Test results? Word about a loved one?

Today I will learn the outcome of a particular trial. I've awaited the decision for 6 months. I opened my devotional this morning, after asking God to "Open my eyes that I may behold the wonderful things from your Word" (Psalm 119:18), and was comforted by these jewels:

"He will have no fear of bad news, his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord." Psalm 112:7

"For I know the plans I have for you,...plans to give you a hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

"He that believeth shall not make haste(Hebrew word meaning put to shame)"
Isaiah 28:16

If we will trust Him, no matter the outcome, we will have peace in the waiting. He walks with us.
