You may consider this a short little post this morning. But these brief words I read this morning I found so powerful, straight from Come Away, My Beloved:
"'Running' with 'patience.' -In these two words I have combined the intensity of purpose and the quiet waiting upon Me which ye needs must have, else ye be overtaken in the race by fatigue of body and soul."
Intensity of purpose...RUNNING
Quiet waiting...WITH PATIENCE
Just because you may be in a season of waiting -for whatever it is!- it does not mean you should just sit in a corner all day -continue running! Stay busy, remain faithful... As I read a while back somewhere else, continue in the path God has already placed you on. BUT just because you are running doesn't mean you shouldn't take the time to listen for His voice, constantly alert for a change in direction to run towards, taking time to "recharge" at His feet. The narrow road to Shiloh's Mount can seem so long at times, yet, as my pastor stated last Sunday, "you may have to sit a while on this journey, simply crying out to the Lord in weariness...But that's okay as long as you don't start going back the way you first came from."
Run. With Patience. Persevere. Don't Quit. Be Faithful.
