I want everything now including answers.  My lack of faith makes me anxious.  I lost my job at the Army and Navy Academy and my last day is Thursday.  My first reaction was what happened and I needed to know why right away.  I was told I still have a job with Culinart, but I would be floating from account to account until something opened up.  This will be something difficult for someone who has a hard time waiting.  I know God is watching over me and that He has a plan, but I need patience to wait on Him.<\/p>\n<p>Application: This will be a challenge.  Every time I say God has a plan and I need to wait; my mind wanders and I go back and want revenge on the people that turned me down.  I need to focus on God and give Him the love and praise He deserves.  I need to be of good courage and to be positive in this situation so that I may see God\u2019s plan for me.  I need to allow Him to work in my life to strengthen me and give me the patience to wait.<\/p>\n<p>Prayer:  My Lord calm your servant\u2019s heart and give me the strength I\u2019ll need to wait on you.  May I wait until you open the door for me, the door that you choose.  Help me glorify You and not myself.  That I will be obedient and wait on you.  I love You and need your guidance and strength as always.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scripture Psalms 27:14 Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the LORD!
