I appreciate you sharing Jeanne’s post, Maree Dee. I appreciated these insights, “When we wait, we learn to trust. Or, we end up frustrated.” And, “In the meantime, I will work to maintain a heart that trusts God for each and every step forward in the waiting. I’ll do what He’s called me to do and trust He’ll take care of His role.”
Lisa,
I am so glad you liked Jeanne’s post. It was such an insightful article. I loved the nuggets you pulled out. I hope you are having a great week.
Blessings,
Maree
Maree, you share some great thoughts on waiting well, too. 🙂 This:
“We can’t allow what we are waiting for to rob us of the present moment. We must push away the constant thoughts that cloud our minds.” I’m too quick to allow aspects of the wait to rob me in the present moment.
Thanks so much for featuring my post!
Jeanne,
It is so difficult not to let the wait rob us of the present moment. I have to work at it all of the time. I loved your post. It was fun to be able to share it with our readers. I am so glad you are part of Grace & Truth.
Blessings, Maree
I enjoyed that post of Jeanne’s too. Waiting is a part of life, but we have to live the rest of life while waiting.
We sure do. Waiting for Jesus to come back. I hope you had a superb weekend. Blessings, Maree
