Wait Or Weight?

The Lord says we should not murmur and we should wait,
His promises are true and faithful, Lord lead me to your gate.
Holy Father hear this my excruciating call!
From this your grace let me not fall.

The weight of waiting is beyond human endurance,
But with your help, we will find forbearance.
Maximize my strength; let your will be done in and through me,
And all glory and honor be given unto Thee; and only Thee.

A wonderful prayer, Joy! A reminder that His time is always the best.. Patience is a virtue I have always lacked and I'm still learning to deal with it. To my favorites tonight. Love, Audrey
