"Wait on the LORD; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the LORD."
We live in an era where practically most amenities can be ordered on demand. We're comfortable with instant meals, instant banking, and wireless communications. Literally ALL information that we seek can be accessed at the stroke of a few keys via huge search engines. Technology has so revolutionized the world that people have forgotten the concept of waiting. We become angry with people who drive too slow and intolerant with little children who want us help. It seems like the word "patience" has been erased from the minds and vocabulary of human beings. But God teaches us to be still and wait primarily because He is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. He is the God who created the heavens and the earth, and all that is therein. It is better to put our trust in the Lord and lean not on our own understanding. Let us learn to wait on the Lord.
