Waiting 😌😻

I used to despise waiting. Call me impatient or expectant of instant results, and I would readily agree.

Waiting for anything used to aggravate me, whether it was standing in line at the bank (thankful for digital banking), waiting at the grocery store, or even for services at the local dispensary. I simply detested the idea of queuing up.

However, upon reflection, I can confidently say that some of my most profound lessons were learned
during periods of waiting. Concepts like gratitude, peace, and trust were cultivated during these seasons. Waiting is a gift.

When we sleep, our bodies have ample time for cells and muscles to regenerate, thereby healing damaged tissues and enhancing brain function.

Similarly, we require periods of pause where we must wait for God to work on us and impart these invaluable lessons, which are nearly impossible to learn amidst busyness and distractions.

This reflection completely shifted my perspective on waiting. As the famous quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson goes, "Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience."
