...and thou shalt know that I am the LORD: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for Me.
-Isaiah 49:23b
"If you have a divine promise, you need not plead it with an "if", you may urge it with
a certainty. The Lord meant to fulfill the promise, or He would not have given it. God does not give His words merely to quiet us, and keep us hopeful for awhile with the intention of putting us off at the last; but when He speaks, it is because He means to do as He said." -C.H. Spurgeon
Wait on the Lord
by Fanny Crosby
Wait on the Lord, wait patiently,
And thou shalt in Him be blest;
After the storm, a holy calm,
And after thy labor rest.
Refrain
Wait on the Lord, for whom hast thou
On earth or in Heaven but He?
Over thy soul a watch He keeps,
Wherever thy path may be.
Wait on the Lord, wait cheerfully,
And He will thy youth renew;
Wait on the Lord obediently,
Whatever He bids thee do.
Refrain
Wait on the Lord, wait lovingly,
Confide in His care thy all;
Those that abide in perfect peace
No danger can e’er befall.
Refrain
Wait on the Lord, wait joyfully,
For then shall thy heart be strong;
Lo! by His hand He leadeth thee,
And thou shalt be filled with song

Dear Sunshine ☀️, what a blessing that Spirgeon quote is, I sent it to a few propels the link, they won’t comment but will look.
We really serve such a loving faithful God He so gets how hard it all is..
He remebereth our frame, He knoweth we are but dust.... but thankfully though the outward man perish the inward man is renewed day by day, I always think from reading to reading with that..the reading being His precious holy word.
Lord bless dear sweet sis.
