WE ALL LACK PATIENCE

(Luke 24:49)And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

I want to say at the outset that I certainly do believe in tarring. (Tarring means waiting)   The Bible says those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength (Isa. 40:31).  Most times when we are in need we tend to forget what the scripture says, and set out on our own journey.   We look to people to assist in our needs instead of God, because we feel God is not moving fast enough.  And every time we do this we say to God “I don’t trust You”   So how can we say to God I believe in You, but I don’t trust You to keep Your promise.   People have disappointed us time and time again, but we still put our trust in them, something is wrong with this picture.  How can we continue to trust someone that we know will not keep their promise, but not wait on the God that will.

Father, teach us how to wait with the right attitude; so give us patience baptize us with the Holy Spirit that will order our steps in Your will.  Lord, change our hearts and minds so we can become a new creation and give us eyes that see the light of Your path for us.  Father, give us ears that hear Your Word and hearts that receive it so we will be transformed into Your people, in Jesus name, Amen
