It seems like I have been called to a period of waiting at this time in my life. And I have discovered there is a lot to learn in these periods. I would never characterize myself as a patient person. I am not one to sit back and watch and hope... not that I don't do that sometimes. I have my dreams and aspirations. But I'm more of a get-up-and-get-it-done type. I'm a planner. I organize. I strategize.
But not always. Not now.
Right now, mostly, I wait.
And during this waiting I have experienced an odd phenomena. Time seems to stretch on and on and on; the future is this foggy unknown; the days go by marked only by their lack of definition and unknown answers.
And then suddenly it's February.
It's like I have been in this habit of waiting so long, feeling immobile, that though time is passing, I don't really expect anything around me to change because I'm in a seemingly static state.
But the month has changed. They tend to do that, I realize. And I knew it was coming. But it's here now. A simple change maybe. But a change nonetheless.
Perhaps there's hope for me too.
I hear ya sister...know what it means to wait, it's a different kind of learning for sure. Then suddenly 6 months had gone by and I was moving to Squamish! Boom.
ReplyDeleteYour prolly already doing it but I encourage you to not waste this time you have, invest in it...seek out how God would have you use it...
