Had an appointment with a gentleman for 2 p.m. He was one hour late! I hated to reschedule for another day, since I was already at his business and prepared to meet with him.<br /><br />So... I read most of a Newsweek magazine, then looked out the window and let my mind wander onto trivia. Two things I have not done in far too long!<br /><br />This little experience showed me that waiting can have some advantages. I hope that's true for you, and all of your readers.<br /><br />Hugs, <br />JenJeanette Levelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12898750484193832082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2574014393816365650.post-73274695216468415922009-07-16T21:13:20.683-04:002009-07-16T21:13:20.683-04:00I have long believed that when the Bible says &quo...I have long believed that when the Bible says "They that wait upon the Lord will renew their strength", it is the waiting that gives me strength...not actually the answer that comes!Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07493703623233516037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2574014393816365650.post-65807067972372289492009-07-16T03:27:28.011-04:002009-07-16T03:27:28.011-04:00Tell me about waiting.Tell me about waiting.Silverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15559987944096301573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2574014393816365650.post-78627695466353212972009-07-16T02:14:57.683-04:002009-07-16T02:14:57.683-04:00Truer words have never been spoken.

I'm not proud of that at all, it's just the truth. God has been working with me on this for years. I suppose I am in process and will be until Jesus returns o until I go to be with Him.
