Growing Time
I have always dreaded waiting times! Times when you have to wait on something (or someone). I am almost always early everywhere I go because I dont want people having to wait on ME! Over the years I have tried to make good use of times when I am forced to wait. If I'm at a doctors office and have to wait, I have my phone so I can keep up with the world, I read the paper, or return emails, or look over my datebook, sometimes I even journal. The same is true when waiting on the Lord. We are not to just sit and twiddle our thumbs until we see manifestation!
I believe we are to stay in action, always preparing for what we will be called to step into next.
A lot can happen during those times we are waiting on the Lord! Sometimes bigger things happen during the waiting than the thing we were waiting for!!!
I spoke with my publisher yesterday and it looks like my book will be complete in about a month! This was good and bad news....you see I was really hoping it would be finished sooner. So as I let go of my disappointment, Daddy God began to speak to me! I knew almost immediately that it was ok, that His Hand is still on me, that I'm and still operating in His favor!!! It is good to be loved by Jesus =) He is always on time! (an attribute I was remended of by a friend!!)
So, because I am self publishing and am responsible for all things financial, I will be doing a lot of self promotion of the book. I am going to take this time to collect my thoughts and put together a plan to promote my book!!! Today I am thanking the Lord for giving me the time, that I didn't even know I needed until He gave it to me, to work on this portion of preparing to release my story!
Daddy God says to us:
BLESSED TO BE A BLESSING!
