{The Blessed Adventurer}

    "For since the beginning of the world men have not heard,nor perceived by the ear,neither hath the eye seen,O God,beside thee,what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him."~Isaiah 64:4

    Waiting on the Lord,as referenced in this passage from Isaiah that my mom always quoted,doesn't mean being complacent.It means understanding He has a time and a plan,and that we're not the ones in control.In the meantime,however,we need to strive to use our gifts and abilities fully and to the best of our ability for whatever He does have in store for us,whenever the time comes.I was beginning to see more clearly that God always has His hand on us-preparing us for His purposes.

    And as I began to see that as not only as a great blessing and promise,but a great responsibility.
