Just now my son Tom came to talk to me, “Mummy, I’ve been banging my wobbly tooth on Esther’s cot so it will come out faster!”

“Don’t do that darling!” I said, rather alarmed. “Let it come out in its own time.”
God spoke to me through that little incident.

I have been wrestling with an issue in my life for the last week or so… whether I accept an offer I have been given for the album or wait on God for a new one.

I sometimes find it hard just to wait. I like to DO. I like to be busy and feel a sense of achievement at the end of the day; to tick a box; to write a mental ‘done’ on my ‘to do’ list.

It is hard to write “waited on God” as part of that. But I sense that is what I have to do.

Father, sometimes I get it wrong. I try my hardest to make things happen. I pursue dreams, people and situations and am frustrated when nothing seems to come of it. Help me in my impatience. Teach me the difference between what I must pursue and what I must wait on You for.

Help me today to let go again of my dreams and trust that You will show me ALL THINGS in your good time. Amen
