Wait Patiently For It

Discerning The Voice Of God

Quote:

IF YOU WANT TO HEAR GOD'S voice clearly and you are uncertain, then remain in His presence until He changes this uncertainty. Often much can happen during this waiting for the Lord. Sometimes He changes pride into humility; doubt into faith and peace; sometimes lust into purity. the Lord can and will do it.~~Corrie Ten Boom


Wait for the LORD; Be strong, and let your heart take courage;
Yes, wait for the LORD
Psalm 27:14

The process of waiting for a message from God
is just as important a the message itself.

These quotes and verses are certainly true. After 12 long years, my mom is a walking testimony for that. Working at Oceans has opened up so many doors for her. Patience is without a doubt one of the hardest characteristics to maintain, especially when we can't control the situation. I am so proud of her. Anyway, I think I'm going to go get that book. It sounds really good. How's the new camera working for you?

Julie,

I am so excited that you were able to get into this study. Priscilla Shirer is a strong teacher. She is a woman of great integrity. Thank you for sharing what you are learning/reading. Its amazing what "waiting" on the Lord will do to you and through you. It's nice to simply sit and listen. How refreshing is this God that we serve. I see His work so clearly in your life. You bless me.
