At the school gate
It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD. Lamentations 3:26 Sometime ago I passed by a primary school and saw parents waiting outside the gate and soon the bell rang then I saw children being led by their teachers to stand at the gate. No child could go until he/she saw the parent. I saw parents waving for their children to see they were there to take them home and I could see so much delight in the children's eyes when they saw their parents and likewise the parents. Most times waiting is for our own good. Moving when God has not come could be detrimental. But when He comes, joy is inevitable. The delay won't matter. He makes up for everything in an instant. All the anxiousness ends when He comes. In your mind's eye, why not stand at the gate like a child waiting for his parents and watch God come for you and just so you know, as a perfect God, He is already at the gate waving at you. Why not go where you can see ...
