Having to wait on others, even to wait on God, is not fun.
That’s because we are in a hurry; to wait is to have our plans upset.
But if God is life and the purpose of life is to find pleasure in God, then why can’t there be fun in the action of waiting?
Try it the next time you are called upon to wait for someone or something.
Open up that gift of time and find the fun within.

What a beautiful quote! Yes, when we open the gift of time and find our Lord’s presence that cannot be contained by time, we truly find joy!

A few years ago, I started knitting in the waiting – and I have knit slouchy hats, shawls, baby hats, blankets – and I am MUCH less frustrated in clock-kind of waiting. I am learning how to living in the journey of a prayer sent out – and how the middle of that living is where a bunch of the important living takes places. Love your thoughts, friend!!!
