Waiting on God is not passive resignation — the Hebrew word pictures a cord twisted tighter, strength braided with God's. Those who wait do not just survive; they mount up, run, and walk without fainting. If God's timing feels slow, remember: He is not wasting your waiting. He is renewing your strength in it. Wait actively — in prayer, in Scripture, in hope.
Wait Upon the Lord
But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Lord, teach me to wait well. Renew my strength as I hope in You, and lift me on eagles' wings. Amen.
