"And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise."
Hebrews 6:15
This verse is talking about Abraham, but it could just as well be talking about each of us. God's promises are sure, but we have to learn patience and faith, and trust in his timing, which is always better than our own. Patience precedes the promises, and even sometimes enables them. Once on my mission If we get to a point where we think that we've waited long enough for the Lord, then we're off track. Just as when tragedies strike, we can't know exactly when, or even if, our problems are going to be resolved. What we do know is that God is the author of the story. We can learn happiness now, even in chapter 5, if with an eye of faith we look forward to God's happy ending and trust in it.
Today, let's work on getting better at the patient endurance, but especially in the trust and faith and belief in God and his plan that allows it to be patient endurance rather than desperate suffering. Knowing that things are going to be okay can get us through immediate circumstances that are not okay. Let's hold on to our trust in the Lord and look to him for our answers.
