Waiting
A hidden opportunity.
It is storming outside my door, but the squall came quickly and will leave soon. I am waiting.
The garden has pushed up through the soil and plants carry the production. It is not yet ready for harvest. I am waiting.
I have sent off a request and not yet heard the answer. I am waiting.
❖
What shall I do with the time? These moments before what will happen has happened -- these are what I have.
Let me not wait to live, Lord.
– from the mountain
Consider:
Can I fully live life, even while I am waiting?
