Waiting in God's waiting room
Waiting in God's waiting room
If you follow me you know that recently I've been feeling down.
I feel like my purpose, no matter how hard I may try, is at a stand still and this also includes my personal life and my non-existent love life. I have been publicly open about my bout with depression and how I just can't seem to get back into my groove again.
So while I was talking to one of my great friends she said you have to look at it this way. You know how you make an appointment to see the doctor and when you get there you have to sit in his waiting room even though you have that appointment? You know how you get mad when your appointment time goes by and you are still sitting there in the waiting room?
Well, now see yourself in God's waiting room, you have the appointment but it's not your turn yet. Maybe other things came up, maybe he's working on some things for you before he can bring you in. It doesn't mean you're not going to see him, or that this thing you're praying about isn't going to happen, it just means you are still waiting to get it.
I had never heard anything like that but for me it was my Oprah light bulb moment! Oh...I get it. It was the perfect analogy and I got it completely. I know that everything I prayed for before, I now have. I also know many of them came on his time, not mine. Even though every night I prayed, I cried, I begged, I envisioned, I put it out there, it didn't matter. When he was ready to move things, he did.
Many things took years and sometimes I felt like I couldn't hold on for one more day, one more second. It was in those times that I held on to that mustard seed size of faith I had left and it got me through one more week, one more day, one more second.
It reminded me of my addiction days when I was in meetings and you couldn't see getting through a week without using. So you broke it down to a day, an hour, by minutes if you needed to just to get over that feeling of wanting to use. You did what you had to do to get through. Some of my best lessons came out of AA and I still use them each and every day.
So today my friends, I am here to tell you that sometimes life needs you to do that, take it one hour, one minute at a time to keep on going. To know that when things are coming at you fast and strong. When it seems like everyone and everything is against you. When you feel overwhelmed, and that you don't think you have enough strength to go on, remember your turn is coming, just hold on, your time is coming, be patient because you're in God's waiting room.
