"~Wait~" (117 hits)

Wait! Waiting Is Not One Of The Fine Arts Of This Century,

But If You Want To Learn How To Experience

The Present Of God, You Must First Learn How To Wait.

And you can't Wait Comfortably If You're Under The

Pressure Of Time. That's Why It's So Important To Choose

A Prayer-Hour Which You Can Guarantee.

I Personally Prefer The Late Night Hours,

Because I Know They Won't Be Disturbed.

I Get All Ready For Bed; Then, For A While

I Read. My Reading May Include Some

Inspirational pamphlet Or Book; But It Always

Includes The Bible. I Read Until I Sense That

I Have Slowed Down The Rapid Pace Of The Day.

And Then... I Wait.

I Simply Relax And Am Quite.

I Began To Thank God For All That

Has Come My Way. Even When I Have

Worries That Weigh Me Down,

I Start My Prayers By Thanking God,

One By One, For His Gifts To Me This Day.

I Pay No Attention To Time, But I Pray Prayers

Of Thanksgiving Until I Get A Wonderful Feeling

Of Well-Being. I Feel That, After All, This World

Is Governed By The Divine Plan...

And Again I Wait.

If I Sense That There Is Something Blocking

My Contact With God, I Try To Discover What It Is,

And Ask For Forgiveness.

Then I Wait Again.

What I Am Waiting For?

I Am Hoping To Experience The Present Of God.

And Sometimes If I Wait Long Enough, There Comes A

Wonderful Moment When I Know That God Is Close.

" It's Worth Your Time To Wait," The Museum Guide Said.

-Norman Vincent Peale

God Is Our Refuge And Strength,

A Very Present Help In Trouble.

Therefore Will We Not Fear, Though The Earth Be Removed,

And Though The Mountain Be Carried Into The

Midst Of The Sea; Though The Water Thereof Of Roar

And Be Troubled, Though The Mountains Shake

With The Swelling Thereof.
