Parker Inspirations

Today I had to do something that is extremely hard for me. I do not like to confront people with anything. I like staying in the shadows. For the past month I have wanted to talk to someone who I love very much! Every time I tried it seemed as though the Lord said, “wait”. I wrote a letter, I rewrote the letter, and I even tried to call one day. Then today in a Devotional that I get every day, it was as if the Lord said, “This is it”. So, I shared my heart and the Devotional in an email. I also text them and asked them to pray before they read the email.

If you look back on August 26 (Holding on to things) entry you will see when I first struggled with this. I wanted to do something right away because I do not want regrets in my life. But it was not time. Now a month later the time is here. Now, I continue to pray. God knows what is in their heart and he knows the outcome. I was just the tool. Yielding to God’s timing makes it better because he knows when we are ready to receive what he has for us. I do not want to jump ahead and do something that could cause a stumbling block. Waiting on the Lord and his timing is so much better.

Psalm 27:14, “Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.”

Isaiah 40:31, “But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”
