Are You Waiting?

Are you waiting on something?

Someone?

An opportunity? An answer?

A way out? A way in?

Hang in there, God is in the wait. 

And besides, He may be positioning you for something great!

In a book in the Bible that bears her name, Esther was orphaned and being raised by her uncle. She was not married, nor living in the country in which she was born. At that time, the King had dismissed the Queen for not submitting to him and had called for all the beautiful young women to be brought to the women's quarters of his home. There they prepared for a year before being brought before the King. The woman that would please him would become Queen.

Oh how Esther must have waited. But God was preparing her, for she received favor from the King and not only became Queen, but later was able to save the entire Jewish nation from being killed.

So, are you tried of waiting?

God may not be planning to use you to save an entire nation, but He may be positioning you to do something mighty in His name.

Don't despise the wait, but place in your heart the truth that God loves you and is wanting to use you in His time and His way.

For who knows . . . "Whether you have come to (this place) for such a time as this?" (Esther 4:12).
