When the Answer is Wait.


Prayer is the utterance of once weakness and nothingness to the all powerful and able God.
Every prayer is answered by the Almighty God in three ways, YES, NO and WAIT.
Its of great joy when our prayers are answered by YES and we feel so disappointed when NO is the response to our request.
But what about if the reply is WAIT?
In our prayers for our career, our broken relationship, plans of God and His will to our lives, what if the response is WAIT?

Waiting does not mean NO, but rather bear with me.
This does not mean God is indifferent to us, he just wants to teach us.
Waiting does not mean you don't deserve what you are asking for, but it do mean... Jesus Christ loves us so much that He even took time in giving what we ask, just for the sake of seeing us growing and learning and maturing.
Waiting is never a denial, it means God fulfilling His plan and purpose in His most wonderful time.
God is never in a hurry, so why do you?
