Wait for God to Move

Lord, listen to my words. Understand my sadness. Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, because I pray to you. Lord, every morning you hear my voice. Every morning, I tell you what I need, and I wait for your answer. ~ Psalm 5:1-3

Guess what! It's me again. Praying for my new job. I pray and I wait. Yesterday I read about waiting in My Utmost for His Highest. It said:

Never run before God gives you His direction. If you have the slightest doubt, then He is not guiding. Whenever there is doubt—wait. At first you may see clearly what God’s will is— the severance of a friendship, the breaking off of a business relationship, or something else you feel is distinctly God’s will for you to do. But never act on the impulse of that feeling. If you do, you will cause difficult situations to arise which will take years to untangle. Wait for God’s timing and He will do it without any heartache or disappointment. When it is a question of the providential will of God, wait for God to move.

So I wait and pray and wait and pray. I know that God is preparing a place for me. He has given me too many confirmations of His plan. I have faith and I will wait.

Thank you God for my new job. I trust in You. I will wait for You. I will praise You and glorify You. Amen.

By the way, Sugar Pop is reading My Utmost for His Highest also. Last night he asked me if I thought this passage was referring to my job. I said, "Yes, and when I read it I knew you would be reading it too and I wondered if you would think the same thing." God is Good!
