Waiting

Darshinihemanth

Free verse
Waiting  yes patiently waiting
For the Lord to show His way
Though the way seems rough
I know He carries me When I faint

Waiting Yes Hopefully waiting
For the Lord to answer my prayer
Though the answer seems delayed
I know His ears inclined to my cry

Waiting Yes expectantly Waiting
For God to takes us to new heights
Though He seems to be nowhere
I know He is paving the path to my ascent

Waiting Yes still waiting
Though the waiting is too long
I know I won’t go empty handed
From my saviour’s courtyard

Waiting Yes still waiting
Though the waiting is discouraging
I know the Master knows His time
His mercies are never delayed

    A very thoughtful poem about waiting on the lord to answer our prayers,
    We are often discouraged when out lives are in turmoil and life hurts.
    Reading His Word - the Bible, memorize. key verses and other sought out Christian literature will help. plus the computer !
    Thanks again for your poem, it helped me today as I am a shut in.!
    You have a gift, write more about our Lord.
