Carpenter’s Tools - Hurry Up and Wait! . . . . .

By Pastor Wallace Phillips – April 13th, 2007


Oh the fast paced world we live in! Everything’s in high gear. We expect everything to be done so quickly. We want 10-minute oil changes, microwave popcorn, pictures printed out immediately, and the list goes on. I think we have the same mentality with the things of God. We want what we want to happen “right now” Lord! And it doesn’t always happen that way. We have lost the art of waiting on the Lord for HIS will to be done in HIS time. We must learn the virtue of waiting.

Isaiah reminds us that “they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength…they shall mount up with wings as eagles…they shall run and not grow weary…they shall walk and not faint.” We need to remember to wait upon the Lord. In our waiting we HEAR His voice. In our waiting we FIND His strength. In our waiting we TAKE FLIGHT with His wings. In our waiting we RUN in His strength. In our waiting we WALK without fatigue. We need to let “patience have her perfect work in our lives” and learn to hurry up and wait.

Have an awesome week in His timing.
