Matter of No Moments

So, I woke up this morning with "the knowing" in my belly. Then, reflected on all the mornings that I felt so similar....the first day of Jr. High school, the day after all the cheerleaders had been elected in 9th grade, the day after I got my first car, the first day of college, the day after I got engaged, the first day of our marriage, the morning after A was born & J & B, and today. Yesterday, we received an offer on our home and today we wait for their response after our counter. I feel so "in the knowing" combined with such anticipation for tomorrow. What will God bring our way? Then in this reflection, I've come to remember how God is always "in the knowing." Its so hard to grasp how he can meet me in my moment and be in the next one at the same time. However, after settling into this concept, I can feel such relief and peace. It is there where the Lord of all creation brings His sovereignty to light. Its all I can do but wait, wait on the Lord.
Oh, Father God, help me to wait. Help me to wait on you and your timing and your blessing. Help me in my impatience. Help me where I loose faith and trust in you. Cover me in your blood of righteousness and full sight. Cover me in your love and embrace me so that I feel comforted and protected. Help me to be a help to my husband and encourage him in these decisions. Bring us together in unity over our choices. Holy Spirit unite us in direction. Lord you are above all else.
Amen
