Monday morning I took my Bible to the lake behind our house to sit in my favorite spot. I’ve sat there countless times before on clear days and enjoyed the peaceful view. But on Monday, the lake was obscured by a thick blanket of grey. I stared out into the mist.
Life looks like this for me sometimes. It calls me to trust in what I cannot see; to wait on Him, believing that the Lord knows what’s ahead and that He will lead me through it.
These days I’m busy preparing for speaking engagements, certain of my calling but uncertain of how God will unfold the details. My guess is, you are sitting in the chair next to me, waiting on the Lord for something. Let’s wait in faith.
But as for me, I will watch expectantly for the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me. Micah 7:7

I love the way you paint with words. You are truly an amazing teacher and friend.
Many times I have felt that I am waiting on God. He has me in a place right now that I can see Him working in my life through my family, but I know this isn’t going to last forever. One day my girls will not depend on me as a mother and a teacher like they do now. I know that God has many plans and adventures waiting for me in the future, and I have so many things that I want to do but I’m unable to do them right now. I have to wait. Until then, I pray that I am content with where He has placed me… as difficult and tedious as it is sometimes. I am not qualified to do this job. God and I both know that, and yet He has called me to this lifestyle, so I will give it my all. I’m constantly reminded that because of my inadequacies, I am more dependent on Him!
Thank you Fawn, for letting God lead and use you to your fullest.
Waiting Expectantly,
