Hurry up and slow down already.

Grace and peace to you my friends,

"Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;" Psalms 37:7a ESV

Friends, in the grand scheme of Gods plan our time here on earth is extremely short. It's simply incomparable to the eternity that awaits us on the other side. How many of us though spend to much of our brief stay here trying to hurry thing along, trying to speed things up so we can get to the end faster? I know I for one am guilty, guilty of being in a hurry to often and having little to no patience when it's called for. 

God's Word however describes a different approach to successfully walking out our Christian faith in this world. In order for us to be like Christ to the world around us and to victoriously endure the trials and temptations of this life we must slow down and patiently await the Lords timing. "Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him", friends for He is faithful and He will bring about your Salvation and His good purpose in His good time. So hurry up already and slow down.
 
For the Joy of Your Faith,
Teagan
