While I'm Waiting

This is one of my favorite songs.  For those who know me, it's no secret that the movie Fireproof is an absolute favorite of mine. I found it during a very difficult time, emotionally.  The movie and the accompanying book, "The Love Dare", changed me profoundly.  It is so amazing to see the changes you can make within your own life, as well as the lives of those around you, when you choose to love.  And I'm here to tell you that "while you're waiting" for those answers to your prayers, learning and practicing God's love is one of the most worthwhile things you will ever do in your life. Period. 

While I'm Waiting Lyrics 

by John Waller

I'm waiting

I'm waiting on You, Lord

And I am hopeful

I'm waiting on You, Lord

Though it is painful

But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident

Taking every step in obedience

While I'm waiting

I will serve You while I'm waiting

I will worship while I'm waiting

I will not faint I'll be running the race

Even while I wait

I'm waiting

I'm waiting on You, Lord

And I am peaceful

I'm waiting on You, Lord

Though it's not easy

But faithfully, I will wait

Yes, I will wait

I will serve You while I'm waiting

I will worship while I'm waiting

I will serve You while I'm waiting

I will worship while I'm waiting

I will serve you while I'm waiting

I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord

(I need to add, too, aside from the impact this movie had on me from a spiritual standpoint, it is also a fantastic movie from a firefighter's point of view. It rivals even "Hollywood Blockbusters" we've seen. My husband and I are both volunteer firefighters and emergency medical responders, and we both found ourselves on the edge of our seats during the very realistic action sequences.)

Hello Mornings!

I'm joining in on the Hello Mornings! Challenge in August... I'm very excited!!

Check it out here... http://inspiredtoaction.com/hellomornings/

"There is nothing special about the Challenge, we are just a community of women pursuing God each morning. But there is nothing in this world that has the power to transform your life like consistent time with God. He made you, He knows you, He has better plans for you than you can imagine. He wants you to know He loves you and that His Grace is sufficient for everything you face. Is there a better way to start your day?"
