While I'm Waiting...

I have been reminded this week how much in our weakness we can find strength in the Lord. I am waiting on the Lord. And although I feel we are all waiting on the Lord for different areas in our lives, waiting may just be a time when we are growing the most as God is pruning, strengthening and preparing for what is yet to come.  Waiting is a choice, trust is a choice, to be obedient is a choice, to worship is a choice and patience is definitely a choice. While waiting and relying upon the Lord, this song has really reminded me to praise God even in the midst of those trials and to find my joy only in Him!

"But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' 
2 Corinthians 12:9a

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience

While I'm waiting
I will serve You
While I'm waiting
I will worship
While I'm waiting
I will not faint
I'll be running the race
Even while I wait

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait

I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve you while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord
