No Waste in the Wait

Where is God calling me?  I have gotten very clear and poignant messages on direction from God for a good part of my life.  I haven’t always listened.  But what is surprising to me is the lack of direction He is providing currently in my life.  I still get God Nod’s or Nudges and confirmations in various parts of my life.  But I am “stuck” currently with my direction.  Am I volunteering in the right place?  Am I in the right career?  How can I help build His Kingdom where I am?

The lack of direction IS the direction.  I am in the right place.  I have a job to do where I am.  Maybe I am here waiting for others to arrive.  Maybe I am here to grow.  Maybe I am here building something for His Kingdom that I do not quite see yet. My impatience is not important, His timeline is.  Just because I feel “stuck” in a rut, or feel like I am in a season of insignificance – I have to remember –  God makes no mistakes and He will not forsake or forget me.  If He isn’t telling me where to be, it’s  because I am where He wants me.

I have to stay obedient, connected, and content.  I have to look for the lessons to learn, the people to love, and the opportunities to serve.

There is no waste in the wait.
