I don't know what He is trying to tell me to do in my life at the moment............
I am happy in the Lord,He is everything to me............
I guess the " waiting room" of God" is a difficult place to be!
I wake up at 5 every morning wishing it was the END of the day.
I feel this isn't normal..........

I know we have strong prayer warriors here,I've read your prayers and the heart behind them!

Please pray for my peace and joy in waiting....until He says move forward!

My prayer time is humbling and blessed before Him,I love and live in the word!

Call my name before Him please,He alone is my guide!

Thank you and awesome blessings to you all!

We all have this feeling, waiting can be painful sometimes, but try to enjoy the presence of God, I personally like it when I set time to pray and just be soaked into his presence, such incomparable joy there is. Give all your worries and cares to God. Be still. God loves you. 🙏🏼

Hi, IFH. You give so much love, I am sorry to hear of your struggle. ❤️ But I'm glad you posted this.

So I know you mentioned you pray and read the Bible regularly. 🌟 Awesome! 🙂 Do you go to any Bible studies or fellowship with other believers? I am currently in a Bible Study Fellowship class and this week we are studying Hebrews 11-13 and discussing faith. (If you haven't lately, do read these chapters!!) It has been a great lesson. I know, personally, that joining together with other Christians for Bible study and prayer and discussion has been a huge positive factor in my life. Just wanted to mention that briefly, Love.

Also, nothing can beat the Bible- For Sure! Nevertheless, I have also been reading in the Streams in the Desert devotional by L.B. Cowman and it has some significantly encouraging content for those who are in trials. I would recommend it for consideration.

Your name has been called before Him, Friend. Have a nice weekend. 🌼

Thank you EliBeth! Yes He is so good to me and I know sometimes it's not all happy and shouting!
I find such comfort in the Psalms at times of disquiet. Yes I regularly discuss scripture with others in study and love the familial feeling of small bible studies.

We serve an awesome and mighty God!

Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou [art] with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

I believe that enduring dark seasons is somehow necessary and profitable. It may seem like deadtime to us, but His ways are higher than our ways. My prayers are with you.

You are mistaken. There is no waiting room of God. We are not to be idle and passive. To say the believer is to wait until commissioned is like saying an elementary school student is waiting to be hired. Our job is to grow. With active hands and an open heart we serve others, being “salt and light”. Salt makes things tastier and light is warm and bright. As long as there is suffering we have work to do. Small acts of kindness, a smile, a kind word, letting a mom in front of you in the grocery line, are all serving God. There is no waiting, only growing, and preparing. It is said many people are willing to do a great work for God but few are willing to do a small one. You say you love His Word. That is good, however this living word is to take root in the heart of believers, bringing a harvest of fruit, performed by the hands. Wait no more, you have been called. Be blessed!

YOU could have by passed this prayer request!
My life is an open book before God!
I'm not sitting on my hands,rolling my eyes!
Maybe you need a waiting room to test your SPIRIT and try the paths before your feet.
I don't just love the word of God,I live and walk in it. It has a MJGHTY ROOT in my grounded heart.
I wait on Him at times in my life,maybe you should and not blunder through through your walk!

Thank you for your thoughts!

First of all...your welcome. Second, what gives you the impression that I blunder through my walk? You seem to be quite offended, when there is no need to be. You stated you desire peace and joy while you wait for Him to say move forward. What makes you think He said to stop, or stay? How do you know the Spirit didn’t lead me to your post to give present you with these words? Clearly they were not well received.
