Waiting does get easier as you go....

I've discovered waiting is quite a paradoxical thing. It gets both harder and easier as you go along. Each day I learn to be more content in the Lord and trust the goodness of His plans and His kindness each day. And yet again each day, the wait becomes harder and harder. I've been learning so much that contentment will not be found in the objects we think will satisfy us, but only God alone. We all say that we know this, but do we know it where it is really tested in the furnace of day to day life? I think this can only be accomplished by the grace of God, but I'm thankful He's teaching me. Father, please help me to know you the way I ought and build a foundation of theology that will sustain me when the hard and trying times of life hit. Please continue to sustain me now.
