Patience, we all need it. 

When in need God always delivers when we ask Him.

He doesn’t always give us what we want when we want it but as Mick Jagger says, “You just might find you get what you need.”

I needed to be reminded today about waiting. Facebook has that new feature offering to post a memory of a previous post. 

Today’s memory is a brief story I wrote about patience as sung by the one and only Bono. See story Story on Patience….

Once I post a story I tend to not reread unless someone brings it to my attention.

My post about patience 2 years ago is right on with today’s need. I would not change a single word.  

Furthermore as I went to write what I am writing now, a poem came up on my screen that pertains to waiting, this also was written two years ago.  

The untitled writing from my notes reads: 

“The forsythia are in bloom reminding me it is worth the wait,

the forsythia are in bloom reminding me He is never late.

Releasing thoughts of rhyme, 

seasoning all things in His time

Yellow brushing as forth comes the sun,

constantly reminding me His work is already done

Thank you Jesus! ”

So the point of my story is God reaches us and delivers our every need when we reach out in prayer. He is always talking.  Listening is key. 

For me, right now I need to continue my journey in patience and if I may be bold enough to ask for my first prayer request publicly, I do ask that you pray for my patience (and that I wait patiently on God) and if you have a prayer request please feel free to post your request in the comment section or email me at justaguyonajourney@yahoo.com

Thanks for the prayer and thanks for reading.
