Psalm 37:7

I love God's word! I especially love it when He uses it to comfort us and speak to us at the times we need to hear His voice the most. I was sharing with a friend who asked what she could pray for specifically with regards to our adoption process and also the sale of our house that is currently on the market. After I gave her a detailed list, she said, "I have something I think God wants me to share with you."

She wrote on a bright orange post-it note the following scripture passage: "Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act."
Psalm 37:7

I do not always hear exactly what I would like to, especially when I am anxious for certain things to take place, but God always lovingly tells me what I need to hear. I am so grateful that I have a Father that knows me so well and provides exactly what I need at every moment and for each season of change.

I have treasured this little orange post-it with such wisdom and that comforts me and reminds me He is in charge of every detail.

Knowing that I am "In His presence", the waiting is not so hard, it is the "being still" part that I am working on.
