Pastor Bell's Words To Live By

Better a dry crust with peace and quiet than a house full of feasting, with strife (Proverbs 17:1).

waiting

One who learns to wait on the Lord will enjoy the benefit that comes from him. Wisdom dictates that we learn to wait. It is in the waiting period that our faith is tested. In the wisdom literature we are encouraged to trust the Lord and wait patiently for him, for it is when we learn to wait that our circumstances are dramatically transformed. So like our sage the psalmist encourages us to wait on the Lord and to wait patiently and he will strengthen our hearts (Psalm 27:14). Throughout the writings of the Psalmist we are encouraged to wait and at the appropriate time the Lord will come.

Today let us say, come Lord Jesus we are ready!
