Psalm 27:13-14 I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

Psalm 37:7 Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when the carry out their wicked schemes.

Isaiah 30:18 Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; he rises to show you compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him!

Commentary: Time is a concept created by man for man. God has no need for time. God asks us each to wait upon Him. Why? Because our God is a god of fairness, compassion and generosity.

Habakkuk 2:1 I will stand at my watch and station myself on the ramparts; I will look to see what he will say to me, and what answer I am to give his complaint.

Commentary: Our actions should be like those of Habakkuk. He is ready, on watch and waiting on the Lord. We do not know when or in what form the answers may come and, before our answer arrives, the Lord may direct us to alter our own lives first.
