How can we wait on God like the farmer waits on the seeds to grow.
God is patient to return and allows times for unbelievers to repent and for Christian's to grow in godliness.
The sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.
Just like Simeon and Anna waited long to see the Messiah, so we wait with eager anticipation for Jesus to return.
When the waiting is over, death is swallowed up in victory and we will feast at the marriage supper of the lamb.
In your waiting, take comfort in the character and consolation of God.
God's past and present grace give us hope to wait for God's future grace.
