This past incident of flooding in the house has shown me several things, none more important than while I look like I am patient I am not all that. I had set up to have the new carpet put in, the carpet manager texted me a few days before that the carpet would be in on Wednesday and that as soon as it came in he would call. Early in the morning the day of, I worried, I paced, I could hardly eat. In the mid morning I still hadn't heard from them. Which brings me to the next important thing I learned, obey God's nudges. I was prepared to wait almost all day when a friend of mine suggested calling them to make sure Wednesday was the day. I had thought while pacing that I would wait until late morning then I thought to myself "No that's not showing trust in God". But then I decided to text to see if today was the day. I heard nothing from anyone at the company. I contacted the owner. Nothing. Now I was really getting antsy. Then I called the people that helped me dry out my house and they lit fires under the carpet people to contact me. And they did contacy me.
So while He wants us to wait on Him, He also expects us to obey His nudges. Obey them and see His works. Obey His stays and see His works. He is a marvelous God.
