patience

"Let patience have her perfect work,

that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."

The Greatest Teacher

"Behold, God is exalted by His power;

Who teaches like Him?"

Job 36:22

True Love understands, 
and therefore waits.

waiting

“Often a Christian man or woman falls prey to that cruel and vexatious spirit, wondering how to find marriage, who, when, where? It is on God that we should wait, as a waiter waits--not for but on the customer--alert, watchful, attentive, with no agenda of his own, ready to do whatever is wanted. 'My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.' (Ps. 62:5 KJV) In Him alone lie our security, our confidence, our trust. A spirit of restlessness and resistance can never wait, but one who believes he is loved with an everlasting love, and knows that underneath are the everlasting arms, will find strength and peace.” 
― Elisabeth Elliot, Quest for Love: True Stories of Passion and Purity

waiting and knowing God

Bahman Farzard

You're waiting for the day to be swept off your feet,

Dreaming of the blessed hour, when two hearts will meet.

It's easy to get caught up, lost in wishful thinking,

But a dream is just a dream until it becomes reality.

Let thine eye be single; guard your heart faithfully,

I know what is best, trust and abide in Me.

'Cause true love only comes from truly knowing Me.

I have a perfect plan - My child, wait paitently.

You are a king's princess, though maybe still a child,

With love I give these words:

Dream of Me and wait awhile.

-Jaclynn Robinson
