Are You Waiting God, Or Is God Waiting On You?

Good Morning Christian Peeps! What a wonderful day! It feels like fall...I'm not sure if I am happy about that or sad...probably a little of both. A thought occurred to me today......it came from a heading I saw in a book....."Are you waiting on God, or is God waiting on you? Think about seesaws for a moment....it takes two people to make it work....one person pushes off and goes up in the air....and then the next person pushes off the ground to go up in the air...now if you have ever been on one....you know that part of the success of seesawing is that the other person has to relinquish control so that you can work your side.... Well...that's how I Imagine that our relationship can be with God.....He does his part and then's waits for us to do ours....He does the impossible and then we are to do the possible. He relinquishes control over some things in our life so that we can experience and see what we can accomplish....he teaches us how to do things and then gives us a chance to do them... If he did everything for us then we really wouldn't learn our capabilities and potential. It is important on our side that when it is God's turn, we relinquish control to him. That's probably the hardest part is the letting go of the control...but just like the seesaw...if we don't he can't work from his side and we won't get off the ground. We need to trust that when we relinquish control that we will indeed enjoy the moment. That whatever happens will be wonderful. If we feel stuck on the ground and things aren't happening the way we want...maybe we just need to relinquish control and let go so that God can take us where he wants us to go. Is it your turn or is it God's? Are you waiting on God, or is God waiting on you?
Be Blessed!


Some praise today.... As most of you know,Yesterday I sang at the Methodist church in South Haven....God really moved. Some of the people came up and told me how moved they were by the songs that God has given me. I am thankful for the doors that are swinging open and God's wonderful blessings. Continue to pray for his will in my life... Thank you!

Prayer Request:

Remember a friend that was diagnosed with cancer...she is going through treatment and needs our prayers.
