I did a good job. I am a good Mom.” I have to remind myself that there is value in waiting and praying. The value being the lessons I learn in that time of “waiting.” Lessons that include turning to Jesus and leaning on Him, trusting Him, getting into His Holy Word and surrounding myself with brothers and sisters of Christ who God places in my life to speak those truths that perhaps friends of the fallen world would not be so bold to say to me. I take solace in the knowledge that in my prayer and wait life, I am not alone but I also realize that my faith must remain active (spending quiet time with God, making Him first - and never tiring of doing God’s work), if I don’t remain active then the drifting comes in …drifting from God and drifting back to God. I am not interested in being a drifter, but a solid witness for Christ.Rachaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03656808594419861572noreply@blogger.com
