Still waiting

We have been home from our second trip for three weeks.  The waiting continues.  We know we are on the home stretch but for some reason the closer we get the harder it is to wait.  We know that soon J will be home and all of this will be a memory!  His bed is ready, his clothes are hung up in the closet and folded in the dresser, and his toys are just waiting on him. We are waiting on him!  Life has been busy here but even in our busyness we still feel incomplete...one of us is missing.  I was in one of those pity party moments and I read a quote from Beth Moore.  I love how God comes to us in exactly the right moment and exactly the right way.  

Really, what I meant was this: you can't rush God.  You can't push Him.  You can't pull Him. You can't tug Him or taunt Him. If He has a mind to linger right where He is, you can't budge Him one inch. You can, however, try to go without Him; but, chances are, you'll come back because, if you really have a heart for God, you'll be miserable beyond His blessing. 
-Beth Moore

Have a great weekend!
