"Our soul waits for the LORD.

He is our help and our shield.

For our hearts rejoice in Him,

since we trust in His holy name.

May Your loving devotion rest on us, O LORD,

as we put our hope in You." Psalm 33:20-22 BSB

Dear Jenise, yours, and everyone here, may the LORD bless and keep you all. This morning, when praying for a comment to add, "waiting for the LORD" came forward as something of great importance for all of us, so may we be encouraged as we wait for the LORD, remembering He is our help, the one works all things together, the one who protects us, thus comforting our hearts not to fear or worry but to rejoice because we trust in Him. Truly, His Love surrounds us as we but our hope in Him, on this day, and forever.

GOD bless you all!

Thank you, James, for praying and listening to our Lord. James Block's song is so beautiful! Yes, love your reminder to wait on the Lord. From the BibleHub page you linked to:

"Waiting on God refers to the posture of complete reliance, trust, and hope in the divine plan and timing. This involves patiently submitting to the will of the One who transcends human understanding, rather than hastily forging one’s own path. It is not passive idleness but rather a conscious engagement of faith, prayer, and obedience in daily life."

Amen!

I knew what you meant immediately as anyone studying during this time should! Your poor husband, I'm glad the second pastor “got it” but so should have the first!

Thanks to our shared reading plans, I know you know I'm right there with ya! Bless you for your continuous service!
