So I told God this morning I am in a funk. There is nothing I’m doing that can be completed–everything seems at a standstill. Each project is waiting for someone to give a response or direction and it is only then that I can take my next step. Several years ago I took a “strength finders profile” test. My #1 strength is responsibility. When I am left to my own thinking I define responsibility as completing each task well. I named no less that 6 projects that I can do nothing with because of someone else’s need to respond. It was about at this point in my journaling that God pointed out to me that “patience in waiting” is a responsible thing to do. He is the Father of responsibility and He defined it with His own actions. He patiently waits for me on a routine basis and He patiently waits for each one of His kids. Wow, I needed this reminder of the breadth of responsibility. The completion of each project will eventually come. However, there can be no completed project if ones at this present part of the development do not have time to do their part responsibly which, by the way, happens to not include me.
Today I will wait and pray. That is my responsible thing to do. God is so good–all the time.
