Sometimes God has to keep the things He promised to give us on Layaway until we realize we are being hard-headed and refusing to obey His command. God does not want us to wait on it but because we are stubborn and insist on doing what we want, we have to wait until we come to understand that He won’t budge. God don’t bend the rules just so we can get what we want. God allows us time in the wilderness so we can grow to know Him better and what He desires. God teach me to obey your commands. Your will is my desire.
God holds onto what He wants to give us and gives it when He feels we got the lesson.
Today’s Scriptures:
My suffering was good for me, for it taught me to pay attention to your decrees. Your instructions are more valuable to me than millions in gold and silver. You made me; you created me. Now give me the sense to follow your commands. I know, O LORD, that your regulations are fair; you disciplined me because I needed it. (Psalms 119:71-73, 75 NLT)
