Believing is Seeing you should check it out if you have a second. Thank you for the awesome post and waiting and leaning are different things. I feel that this article is referring to not doing anything in the hopes of achieving anything. "Idol hands are works of the devil" <BR/><BR/>Great standpoint in relation to this article though.<BR/><BR/>Josh<BR/>joshvanhouten.blogspot.com<BR/>God's work in my life!Joshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16428137083484819461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2899018576420083198.post-81014263988228008882008-03-05T09:42:00.000-08:002008-03-05T09:42:00.000-08:00Mary is a beautiful example of waiting on the Lord except for one thing. She sat at His feet physically. I can't do that. I can't sit at His physical feet and stare at Him with amazing love but I can always stir up my love for Him and expect His love to overflow in me as I wait, expect and gather to Him. <BR/><BR/>I can wait on the Lord as I sit and write this comment. A mother can wait on the Lord as she nurses her infant. A mechanic can wait on the Lord as he replaces a motor. It really is easy to wait on Him no matter where we are because wherever we go, there He is. My groom is always with me. I need only close my eyes for 10 seconds and picture my beloved there before I can sense Hi embrace. <BR/><BR/>Yes, Christians are lazy. We are lazy in practicing the pursuit of God in the midst of the common and the mundane. Too many people think they need the perfect environment to experience intimacy with Jesus and yet Stephen, in the midst of being stoned, say his beloved standing at the right hand of the Father and worshiped Him. <BR/><BR/>All I want to do is turn my eyes to the one that is alluring my heart. He says that we are betrothed for ever. That means that I have eternity to explore and enjoy this phenomenal love relationship. Yeah, I am going to wait on the Lord everyday, all the time, everywhere I am because no matter where I am, there is my beloved.richard aronsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04904059365447579763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2899018576420083198.post-45916504629640844002008-03-05T08:19:00.000-08:002008-03-05T08:19:00.000-08:00Wow this is super relevant to what I was just wondering. How can I pass a really hard test that is coming up, and still maintain my close connection with God. Simply work as hard as possible to achieve both. I guess we spend way to much time thinking about how to not work then we would just doing the tasks we are trying to accomplish. Thanks for this article I am going to link back to it. Very awesome article!<BR/><BR/>Josh <BR/>joshvanhouten.blogspot.com<BR/>God's work in my life!Joshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16428137083484819461noreply@blogger.com
