Wait Patiently For Your Promise

Hebrews 6:15

¹⁵ And so after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised.

Our families have lived around agriculture all of their lives.  Many of our friends growing up had father's that farmed including my (Elisa) father.  One of the things that comes to mind when we think about farmers is the incredible amount of patience these guys have.  Think about it, they cultivate the soil, plant a seed, water it, tend to it as it grows, and then months later harvest a crop.  

Oxford American Dictionary defines patience as "the capacity to accept or tolerate delay."  One of the key characteristics God reveals to us in scripture about Himself is patience. Many of His chosen men and women in scripture had to wait long periods of time until He fulfilled His promise that He made to them. 

Why is it that when we have an idea or embark on a new journey in our life/career that we want immediate results?  

Today wait patiently for your promise.

Have a great day!  God bless you.
