Waiting On The Lord

Oh, I tell ya, is there anything more frustrating than,
Waiting on the Lord?
Come on God!

David, my Biblical nemesis,
Whines quite a bit over:
Not getting his way,
Paying for his deeds,
Having to wait on God!
 
I had little sympathy for David in my walk as a Christian!
It is like, "Grow a pair dude, and pretend you are a man!"Is
As I said, no kid gloves when you deem yourself a representative of God!

Of course, all of the surgeries,
And side effects,
Have humbled me ....
And now I must view David through the filter of,
He is just a fallen man ... no different than any of us!

Psalm 13

David's Complaint
"How Long?"
Alluding to the absence of God in his life.
David seems depressed.
So he must continue to pray for God's will,
AND WAIT for His response!

And be open to receive an answer you will not like ...

Call For Help
Waiting for the answer.
"Light up my eyes!"
"No more ..."
Pray!

Confession of Trust
"But I have trusted ..."
Acknowledges God.
He can pray because he knows God is there!

David's Commitment to Prayer
Realize it is God whom blesses you.
Acknowledge that blessing!
It may take years!
So, get past depression!
Praise God for who He is and has done!
Know that God is there,
Is listening,
Will respond,
And will become real to you again!
