 WILL BE

Today's reading: Genesis 12-15

"Afterward the Lord spoke to Abram in a vision and said to him, Do not be afraid, Abram, for I will protect you, and your reward will be great." Genesis 15:1 NLT

Let's be honest, Abram is a model wait-er. 

He waited on a place.

He waited on a son.

He waited on a promise.

He waited on a God who could have snapped His holy fingers and allowed all to happen in an instant.

He waited on a God who was perfectly able to turn the world inside-out to accomplish all He had promised.

He waited on a God who had the power to fix everything, everyone and every place with a mere spoken word.

But God asked Abram to wait.

Wait for the answers.

Wait for the right time.

Wait for the reward.

Maybe this very same able, capable and powerful God is asking you to wait, too.

He's asking that of me.

And in the waiting, I'm finding Him to be faithful.

I'm finding Him to be my Protector.

I'm finding out more about my Friend than I ever knew before.

So I will wait--and continue to believe that my reward will be great!
