Though it tarries, I am waiting...

I want to share about several insights I've had in recent weeks - some key "a-ha" moments. I love "a-ha" moments - I delight in them, I praise God for them. I just have no words right now to describe the work the Holy Spirit is doing with me. Joy, covenant marriage, and discerning the voice of God - these are the areas of my life where God has been at work. Ministering to me, rebuking me, challenging me, calling me forward and reminding me of all that's wonderful around me. So instead of my words, I'll use His. These are my "life verses" at the moment, I pray they minister to you today.

Isaiah 50:4-5
The Sovereign Lord has given me an instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being taught. The Sovereign Lord has opened my ears, and I have not been rebellious; I have not drawn back.

Jeremiah 33:3
Call to me and I will tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.

Habakkuk 2:1, 3
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 to this complaint.
For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.
