"Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart."
There is so much that I desire, so much that I ask the Lord for. Not only is it part of who we are as humans (to have desires for things, to want things in life) but as a girl I feel like it is just worse for us. Am I right ladies?? There are so many things that I want for my life: More than anything, I desire to get married, I would love to live overseas for sometime in life, I desire to help other people, I desire to have my own kids as well as adopt, and so much more. I am having a hard time laying those desires down at the throne and waiting on the Lord right now. I know he has my best interest at heart BUT (why is there always a but, why can't the Lord just be enough for me??) waiting is awlays been hard for me. Just like the verse says, I really need to take delight in the Lord its just that some seasons in life are easier then other.
But back to the question "Why is the Lord not enough for me at times?" I get so frustrated with myself when this question comes up in my life. This is a question that is always been a pain for me because I don't always know how to answer it. I know that my journey with Christ is just that a journey, that I am not going to just poof to the end of my life where everything is hunky dory, if only it were easy. I go through these seasons of life where God is all I need and I am content as can be. Waiting on God!!! Even though it is hard to wait on God's timing, waiting has brought me closer to Him, which I would not change for the world. I am very thankful for all the that God has taught me through my waiting but I don't always want to :-)
