waiting game

Since coming back to school life has been a waiting game; waiting on God and waiting for His plan to fall into place in His timing. I am waiting on literally EVERYTHING right now.While I've always known that nothing is in my control, it's become so much more evident. Here is my "waiting list":

Seminary visit at Gordon-Conwell

Ankle surgery recovery

Coaching softball in the spring

Looking for a job in the spring

Graduation in December

Missions agencies applications

Two-week trip to Rwanda in February

More information about possibly spending a year in Rwanda

Figuring out living/financial situations for next year

That's just off the top of my head. I am such a detail-oriented person, but details are hidden from me as well, so God is also refining my patience. Simply put, I am waiting. I have a lot to be seeking His face about, so I will seek His face while I wait. I will be faithful while I wait, I will serve while I wait, I will worship while I wait. I see that the road ahead of me is exciting and the next chapter that God has for me is quickly approaching, but it's not here yet and I still have things to do in this present moment. God's timing is perfect and details will come when He wants me to know them. I pray I will not lose heart (nor patience!) in this season of waiting that God has called me to. 

"Wait for the LORD; be courageous and let your heart be strong. Wait for the LORD."

Psalm  27:14
