*WAITING ON GOD*(From Our Daily Bread)

(5-Year Anniv.🌻🙌🏻)

Let's enjoy this once again from Our Daily Bread Devotional just this Tuesday(July 3).

It's all about *The Need to Wait&....Understanding the need to wait on God...For it might just be a dear one or even YOURSELF*

*The Message:*
_I was sitting with a group of passengers on an airport shuttle heading to our connecting flight when the bus driver was told to ''hold in place''.It looked like we would miss our flight, and this was more than one passenger could handle._

_He exploded at the driver, insisting he ignore his orders or 'risk the wrath of a lawsuit.' Just then an airline employee came dashing up carrying a briefcase. Looking at the angry man,the airline employee triumphantly held up the briefcase.When he had caught his breath,he said,'You left your briefcase. I heard you mention how important your meeting was and I figured you would need this."_

_Sometimes I find myself impatient with God, especially about his return. I wonder,What can he be waiting on? The tragedies around us, the suffering of people we love and even the stresses of daily life all seem bigger than the fixes on the horizon._

_Then someone tells their story of having just met Jesus,or I discover God is still at work in the messes.It reminds me of what I learned that day on the shuttle. There are stories and details God knows that I don't. It reminds me to trust him and to remember that the story isn't about me.It's about God's plan to give time to others who don't yet know his son(2 Peter3:9)_

_*WAIT&WITNESS TILL JESUS RETURNS*_

*SO I SAY:*
*WAITING ON GOD.(From Our Daily Bread)*
