WHILE I'M WAITING

WHILE I'M WAITING

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But anxiously patiently, I will wait

I will
sit in my bed move ahead, bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience
While I'm waiting
I will whine and cry serve You
While I'm waiting
I will complain worship
While I'm waiting
I will not faint
I'll be running the race
Even while I wait

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve you while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord

OH, how my flesh gets to me.
It is a lot of things; a long winter, a long time of being sick, a long time waiting to see our daughter.  It just all gets hard.  

I think you have all figured me out and know that music really touches my heart.  I can really get lost in a song that speaks to me right where I am.

This song says it all, at least all that it should say.
It is a good reminder to me that while I am waiting I have a lot to do.  I need to keep my heart and mind focused on worship and serving and not focused on waiting.  

We could get an email any day with travel dates and I am tired of waiting, but today I choose to worship while I wait.

"Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; 
he rises to show you compassion.
  For the Lord is a God of justice.  
Blessed are all who wait for him!"  
Isaiah 30:18
