Lenten Devotional - Day 9

Psalm 130

"I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I hope; my soul waits for the Lord more than those who watch for the morning, more than those who watch for the morning."

Waiting can be hard. Especially if it is something we have been waiting a long time for or if it is something we are waiting for in high anticipation. Maintaining our patience while waiting can be a difficult process. We want answers. We want results. We want them now! Though it is in these moments, moments of waiting, when we find ourselves uniquely challenged. How can we use these seemingly stagnant moments of waiting to positively reflect on the past, present, and future? What are we called to do during these moments of waiting? 

Amid the season of Lent, as we patiently wait, what might you be called to do while you wait?

The Great I Am, we know waiting can be hard. We so often become impatient and consumed by our anticipation. Help to maintain in us a patient mind and calm spirit so that we might respond to our call amid the waiting. Amen.
