If ever you
find yourself in a state of confusion or at a crossroads and you’ve got some
hesitance about which way to turn. Wait.
If you’ve
been going a hundred miles an hour then something happens to knock you off your
game just a bit and you’re not sure how to handle it. Wait.
In matters of
the heart, if things seem to be ok, but you’re still not quite sure about
him/her. Wait.
If you fear
making the wrong decision, ask your higher power (HP) to step in. Vow to reach no conclusions on your own. Especially if you have an itch in your
gut. Because I’ve learned that those
itches are there for a reason.
Let me tell
you what waiting does – and I’m not gonna take all day.
1. Waiting
gives you just enough time to think clearly.
Even if it’s only for seconds, often that’s all we need to come to the
right conclusion.
2. Waiting allows time for the other party to
show their true colors – because they always will. These are colors that have probably been
present since the beginning, but appeared faded to your eye. Perhaps you justified them in some way. However, time allows them to relax just
enough to slip up, and give you a glimpse at your future. You may ask surprisingly, “Where did that
come from?!?” Quit playing silly. It was always there and you know it. Just thank God you didn’t act in haste.
3. Waiting allows your higher your HP to see
your true intent, so that you can be nudged in the right direction. Sometimes WE have to prove OURselves worthy
of guidance. HP wants to see if you’ve
(a) learned from past mistakes, (b) got three shreds of patience within you,
(c) asked for guidance with a sincere heart.
And believe
you me. I know that waiting can be a b*&^% at times. We just want to jump right, run left, move
south, and power north – all at the same time.
Calm ya butt down a little bit!
Wait. Just sit down and
wait. No need to be a fool (again). The proper choice ALWAYS reveals itself. And wouldn’t you rather it be revealed before
you made a step in the wrong direction as opposed to having to say, “Dang. I wish I’d waited.”
Patience is a
virtue. I didn’t make that up – it’s for
reals. Get some and learn to wait.
