“Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord” (Psalm 27:14).
How very hard it is to wait for something! Perhaps you are waiting for the date when you can try for your driver’s license. Perhaps you want to find a marriage partner and the Lord has not brought that person into your life just yet. You are waiting.
Here we see that waiting is connected with courage and the strengthening of our hearts. Do not treat the waiting the way we sometimes wait at a red traffic light! Just anxiously waiting until we can step on that gas pedal and get going again!
There are lessons to learn and moral character to be built. If the Lord puts you into a “hold” pattern, take it from Him and learn in the time that you wait. He promises to strengthen your heart.
