WAITING

I hate to wait. It makes me cranky. It makes me feel boxed in. Worst of all it makes me worry. And when I worry I eat, instead of charging straight to God. I forget that He has everything under control. I forget that He dictated that the Allies would win WWII and that Hitler would rise to power. It may not have been His preference but He knew that because of world events and because of things that we had become Hitler was inevitable. We earned him. Instead of running toward God in times of trouble, we ran to Hitler. Until we realized how much a mistake that was. We earned WWI. All countries lined up against each other and war was inevitable. Again instead of running toward God, we ran toward war. Countries hate to wait too. Just like me. May God forgive us and may we run to Him instead of our own instant gratification.
