Just Grow
Waiting on God requires the willingness to bear uncertainty, to carry within oneself the unanswered question, lifting the heart to God about it whenever it intrudes upon one's thoughts.
~Elisabeth Elliot
To love God is to love his will. It is to be content with His timing and wise appointment.
~Elisabeth Elliot
Many times we're in such a hurry to reach perfection or to be right where we know we want to be that we lose sight of the importance of the small steps we're to take in our journey. Take note... the flowers don't rush their growth, they don't bud before they are ready. If they did so they would shrivel and die in the early spring frost. They don't blossom and give off their vibrant colors until the time their master has appointed them too. No, they wait, patiently, while constantly growing into the beautiful specimen they will become. We should do the same. Don't rush the process, but don't wait for anything. Grow in Him and He will transform you into the beautiful person He wants you to be.
