Wait for the Lord!

The Lord is always faithful and gracious.  In my discouragement this morning, the Lord showed me this verse during my Bible reading.

"Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the Lord!"

~Psalm 31:24

Sometimes it seems the only place of relief and refuge we can find is on our knees crying out to the Lord in prayer.  But that is a good thing; that's right where He wants us to be.  And it is there that we get courage, faith, and strength to keep pressing.  Our Lord is faithful, and will work all things out for the good of His children.  We must wait for Him.  He will renew our strength and lift us up.
I was also reminded of this favorite song of mine.  We must wait on the Lord wherever we find ourselves.  Often waiting is hard, but we know and must trust that He will work things out and use it for His glory.
