I don't like things that take a long time. I'm sort of an need-it-in-an-instant type of person. Everything in my life is right at my fingertips. Growing up in this culture, I think many of us are like that (those some of you are unique and are willing to wait). But the beauty of life is in the waiting. I feel we have to view our lives as a story that we're living in. Each part of our story shapes who we are. So the journey may be hard, the journey may be long, but the reality is that it'll make us who we are.
I believe that God has plans for all of us - a purpose for all of us. Sometimes we want that big plan to come now, but it's the everyday moments that make life really life.
Read this passage from Jeremiah 29......
10 This is what the LORD says: "When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my gracious promise to bring you back to this place. 11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile." (Jeremiah 29:10-14)
