There is a verse in Zechariah 4 that offers encouragement to God's children. It says, "Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by My spirit, saith the Lord of hosts" (v.6).
Sometimes we struggle with waiting. We live in a microwave society that wants things to happen right away. We want answers, solutions, resolutions, etc. now. I think we have been so accustomed to having so much readily available to us that when it's necessary to "wait upon the Lord" we have a hard time. One of the things we need to understand is that God does things in His time, not ours.
I like what Paul the apostle said. "When I am weak, then I am strong." Our strength is not in our capabilities, but in God's. If we can learn to wait on God, we will find that it was worth the wait.
'Til the storm passes,
Pastor Gary
