Patience is a virtue
Good things come to those who wait
Love is patient, love is kind
And the list goes on...
There are so many Bible verses and sayings about the importance of being patient. But waiting always seems the hardest when it's the unknown. As you all know, we are still in Indiana awaiting the birth of our baby (who is 5 days overdue now, not that we're counting ;) ). Let me tell you though, we have become experts at waiting. We've become experts at waiting on test results, phone calls, matches to be made, visits, and now a birth. And through all of this waiting I am constantly reminded that I am NOT in control. God definitely has the upper hand! :) And even though I would love for all of these things to happen quickly, they are happening in God's time and I am trying to enjoy my days of waiting...but it's not easy! :)
What's been the hardest thing you've had to wait for?

ReplyDeleteI am waiting with you! You don't know me, but I have never checked your blog as much as in the past week!! Waiting to hear news (and rejoicing with you!) of the arrival of your baby! (BTW, I am Jenn & Jess's friend!)
ReplyDeleteIt will come, it will come. And I know it doesn't help when 100 people ask you everyday if he's here yet. I just hope and pray that I get to see him before Christmas! :) The hardest thing I've had to wait for is 15 months for Steven's deployment to be over. And I guess the 2nd hardest thing to wait for while be the 12 months on his next deployment. :(
