The Real Reason

So, it's Christmas morning, and I can't sleep! I have to be up early, but for some nostalgic reason I'm not the least bit tired. I began to write earlier about patience, and didn't feel the post going anywhere. Let's see where this goes.

Waiting is an art. Everyday, patience is tried. Bus stops, lines at the grocery store, the doctor's office. In our house, we always had to wait until the sun rose to unwrap gifts. Regardless, the waiting process usually has something to look forward to, which is funny because unlike the old days I'm not really looking forward to anything specific today (I just want to sleep now). Anyway, everything happens for a reason, and Jesus is the reason for everything. He's why we wait, why we get up in the morning, why we go to sleep (smiley face).

What if we had to wait for an unlimited amount of time? What could possibly be the result? Would it be rewarding, or pointless? Naturally, I can only liken such a situation to sitting in jail, which can be very agonizing. But, we as beings are used to having limits. Whether stretched or reduced, having no limits is dubious and downright next to impossible (sorry Percy), for us.

I'm so glad to know someone who has never had any limits. Someone who would share their capacity with me in any situation, WHENEVER I needed it. Where's my reasoning? In Jesus. Though I may have to wait on the Lord for many things, I know that He gives me the ability to have limitless faith in Him for everything! That's one thing that we as human beings have no real limits on. Faith in Jesus will make you wait for ever! I've been waiting to see what life really has to offer, but I know I won't see it until I'm in the presence of life- Jesus!

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 10:6
Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. 
Psalm 25:5
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. 
Isaiah 40:31

Merry Christmas to everyone. I love you all! Keep the Lord in your reasoning =)
