]]> Storms come, you can be sure of it. Literal or metaphorical, they often come without warning and without reason. Jesus has power over these storms, power over the literal storms in His creation, and power over the storms in your life. When Jesus calms the storm (⁠Matthew 8:23-27⁠), the disciples even ask, ‘What sort of man is this?’ echoing ⁠Psalm 107:24-31⁠. He is the master of creation! Though the disciples were afraid, and there is certainly a reverent fear we should have toward our creator, Jesus says, ‘Be still.’ God has stated these words to Moses, to David and to you: “Be still and know that I am God” (⁠Psalm 46:1-11⁠).

In his humble poem (⁠Psalm 27⁠), from experience David states, “Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let our heart take courage; wait for the Lord.” He wanted to honor God and build a temple, but God said no, that will be the task of his son (⁠1 Chronicles 17:16-27⁠).

]]> God gave King David a promise. God would establish a kingdom and on the throne will be a David’s son (⁠1 Chronicles 17:1-15⁠). David waited. He waited many years. In his humble poem (⁠Psalm 27⁠), from experience David states, “Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let our heart take courage; wait for the Lord.” He wanted to honor God and build a temple, but God said no, that will be the task of his son (⁠1 Chronicles 17:16-27⁠). Still, the prophecy of David’s offspring in God’s eternal kingdom did not come to pass (⁠2 Samuel 7:28-29⁠). But God’s words are identical with His actions – it will come to pass. The King, the fulfillment of the David covenant is fulfilled in Jesus Christ (⁠Luke 1:26-33⁠). What a joyous event! Yet, we still wait. The King has come and eternal Kingdom has started, but we are still in a time of transformation. In this time, with a surrendered heart like David has taught us, we get to enjoy Him now and forever (⁠2 Corinthians 3:18⁠).

How do we recognize that it is not a waste of time? The fall broke our relationship with God, others, creation, and ourselves. However, in the same verses of Genesis that describe the fall, God presents the protoevangelium; the first good news of the redeemer. Jesus is that redeemer.

However, in the same verses of Genesis that describe the fall, God presents the protoevangelium; the first good news of the redeemer. Jesus is that redeemer. He brought Himself down to a position such that Satan could strike His heel, yet in the same act, Jesus crushed Satan (John 12:28-31). This was God’s plan before the foundation of the world (1 Peter 1:19-20) (Rev 13:8). And God’s plan requires waiting. During this time God is doing great things in us and around us. We have hope in this, and we must be patient (James 5:7-11). For, we who wait shall have renewed strength and will not be exhausted. We shall mount with wings like eagles and we will run without weary (Isaiah 40:30-31).

Ultimately it could be a trust issue. Trust God, be patient. His timing is perfect.
