I waited until God answered.

But I didn’t wait and wallow, instead I worked while I waited… Sure I wondered. Sure I wished. But I found it best that I walked because I knew: Love has no evil in mind.

It was then I knew, I noticed. I nodded that God had me waiting on purpose. I acknowledged and I knocked on doors. I never lost hope – not that I should have, this notion was not novel or nutty. And I knew: Love has no evil in mind.

Now, I didn’t assume my expectation would be answered positively. So nice that it was. 

No, I didn’t always understand why I couldn’t dial up an instant answer. So nice it did finally come.

And I didn’t anticipate – well at least I tried not to. So nice that God delivered – I knew He would – because Love has no evil in mind.

I didn’t knock God – especially since He has never knocked me.

I waited. I worked. I wondered.

I wished. I walked. I witnessed.

Love has no evil in mind.

I finally went “Whew!” when my prayer got answered: “YES!” Great!!! and on top of all that, I felt God was answering in LOVE.

God is LOVE – that is why Love has no evil in mind.

Amen

1 Corinthians 13:4-7  Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

(PS  – these last few days I had been waiting and waiting for clearing all the hoops that I was jumping to have cleared = and they did = and I am BLESSED as it was no slam dunk – it was no done deal – it wasn’t hard to apply but the waiting was needed and noticed…  I had to wait upon people and people’s acceptance but I was not idle in waiting on God because God always keeps us looking to the moment at hand – what am I supposed to do while waiting? work, wonder, witness, and praise…  I am SO glad that I waited without the wallow…  thanks God – thanks!)
