Psalm 46:10
King James Version
10 Be still,
and know that I am God:
I will be exalted among the heathen,
I will be exalted in the earth.
What is a good enough reason to bear things?
To endure, to the end?
To continue living?
To wait it out?
There are many WONDERFUL reasons to.
Young people seem impatient.
To succeed, to go out into the world, to marry, to have a family.
Wisdom comes from age, as they say.
Wisdom also comes from pain.
At having suffered much.
At realization.
Especially when you become GOD's own.
And are instructed by JESUS, SPIRIT, and SCRIPTURE.
You begin to understand the reason for all pain.
The reason for all hardship.
The reason for all challenges.
And you grow in grace, knowing the HAND of GOD is in EVERYTHING.
Never again do you question the ways of GOD.
You accept what you are given.
You work with the cards you're dealt with.
Everything has been predestined for you by GOD
Jeremiah 29:11-12
King James Version
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,
saith the Lord,
thoughts of peace,
and not of evil,
to give you an expected end.
12 Then shall ye call upon me,
and ye shall go and pray unto me,
and I will hearken unto you.
GROWING in GRACE means you surrender to GOD's POWER.
Only GOD has figured out things.
He is MASTER, and CREATOR.
The true born again prays to JESUS, sits still, and waits.
Until such time the SPIRIT of GOD gives you a prompt.
Then you'll know what to think, speak, and do.
In consonance with GOD's will.
There is peace in sitting still.
In waiting upon the LORD.
Isaiah 40:31
King James Version
31 But they that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings as eagles;
they shall run,
and not be weary;
and they shall walk,
and not faint.
JESUS did say:
Matthew 24:13
King James Version
13 But he that shall endure unto the end,
the same shall be saved.
In JESUS is GREAT POWER.
EVERYTHING obeys Him.
Mark 4:37-39
King James Version
37 And there arose a great storm of wind,
and the waves beat into the ship,
so that it was now full.
38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship,
asleep on a pillow:
and they awake him,
and say unto him,
Master,
carest thou not that we perish?
39 And he arose,
and rebuked the wind,
and said unto the sea,
Peace, be still.
And the wind ceased,
and there was a great calm.
Put your faith in the LORD, and MASTER, of everything.
