Today I am living in God’s peace as I wait on direction from Him

The one who listens to me, who carefully seeks me in everyday things and delays action until my way is apparent, that one will find true happiness. For when he recognizes and follows me, he finds a peaceful and satisfying life and receives favor from the Eternal. Proverbs 8:34-35 (The Voice)

One of the hardest parts of walking out our lives as Christians is to wait on God longer than we think we should. God understands that we go through seasons of being impatient or even frustrated. What He clearly tells us to do in this verse, however, is to “delay action until my way is apparent”. We can really make a mess of things when we decide to follow our ways and our timing. The thing to focus on when it gets hard to wait is the promise waiting for us as we follow God’s ways. He tells us here that as we wait on Him we will have peace and live under His favor. Now that’s a life worth waiting for!
