This week has been a week of waiting. Waiting for the sun to come out, waiting for a huge life altering exam on Saturday, and most importantly, waiting for God's voice to become clear on a number of things. It has been a week of trying to find moments of peace and calm where I could sit and reflect. Today, as I have begun to recognize God's hand in specific areas of my life, I am so thankful that I have a God who wants control of my life. I returned to a passage which I hadn't read in a very long time, Jeremiah 29:11-14.
I know what
I’m doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not
abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for.
When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I’ll listen.
When you come looking for me, you’ll find me.
Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else, I’ll make sure you won’t be disappointed.
As I sit and let this truth wash over me, I find that place of peace. God is always speaking to me, his voice always there. When I ask, he will answer in some way. So as I wait again this upcoming week, I know that I can wait in the peace that comes with the understanding that I have an all powerful God who has control of my life. He will open and close doors as I wait for him.
