WAIT OR WEIGHT!

Recently I traveled to Orlando, Florida and due to inclement weather I could not return home. It's pretty amazing the emotions that we process when we are faced with disappointing circumstances. No one likes having their plans changed, especially when there is a special occasion you are trying to get to. I checked out my attitudinal journey, moving from frustration to justification of the circumstances. Knowing everything happens for a reason and purpose and ofcourse Ecclesiastes reminds us daily that there is "a time and purpose to everything under heaven". The challenger of our purpose, in an attempt to continue to frustrate us will present "weights" of indecision and disappointment to further complicate our times of waiting. Do not allow these weights to complicate and confuse your wait. God is workng out His purpose in our lives even during missed opportunities or changes in our circumstances. Remember this, that while we are waiting the Psalmist challenges us to "be of good courage" and then strength will come. The challenger would prefer that we become anxious. God has many ways to work out our schedules and if He decides to alter, cancel or rearrange our appointments it is for divine purpose and our empowerment. Enjoy the weight!
