The whole duty and blessedness of waiting on God has its root in this, that He is such a blessed Being, full, to overflowing, of goodness and power and life and joy, that we, however wretched, cannot for any time come into contact with Him, without that life and power secretly, silently, beginning to enter into us and blessing us. God is Love! God’s love is just His delight to impart Himself and His blessedness to His children. Come, and however feeble you feel, just wait in His presence. As a feeble invalid is brought out into the sunshine to let its warmth go through him, come with all that is dark and cold in you into the sunshine of God’s holy, omnipotent love, and sit and wait there, with the one thought: Here I am, in the sunshine of His love. As the sun does its work in the weak one who seeks its rays, God will do His work in you.

To bask in the Lord’s rays. What a blessed place. I haven’t had a chance to do that for a while and I am long overdue. π¦

Dear Brother Steve,
This post really spoke to me today. It brings to mind something my pastor said about that all of our prayers our heard and answered, but they are answered in God’s time, not ours.
Have a blessed week my friend.
