When we are at cross roads,there may more than one option,(learn to choose the best) waiting on God is indispensable.
We may be totally confused to choose between good and bad and between good and better.
'Show me your ways, LORD, teach me your paths.Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long'. Psalm 25:4-5
'I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their hearts'. Hebrews 8:10
The way we are carried through is a different route, far beyond our imagination and thinking.
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD. As the heavens are higher than the earth so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9
Waiting on God really means or can be expressed as a servant looking to his master for orders and instructions. We need that humbleness and there should not be any trace of ‘ego’ in expectation.
'I lift up my eyes to you, to you who sit enthroned in heaven. As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a female slave look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he shows us his mercy.
Psalm 123:1-2
The attention and care to serve for the master should be undivided.Day in and day out we are liable to miss God’s will in our life. At critical times We are so engrossed (in the problem) we do not withdraw ourselves for a while to wait on the Lord.
In our stumbling, we may fail to see the answer.
Only God knows the best for us.
Be still and wait for the Lord.
To hear from above, shut your ears from the voices around you.
Sharpen your ears to listen to the soft and clear voice ( God’s) speaking to you.
Pray.
Let thy will be done.
Of course the total procedure is tough it needs a strict discipline to wait on the Lord.
Have a good day.
God Bless.
