worth the wait

I believe that some things are wort the wait no matter how badly I want something sooner than I get it. There are several things I can think of that I want to see happen immedeatly.  Here is a story I found in the Bible about the subject.  Many may know about the story of Abraham and Sarah.  She was promised by God to have a child and to be the mother of many nations.  She laughed at the thought of bearing a child past her years.

  "Then the Lord said to Abraham,"Why did Sarah laugh and say, 'Will I really have a child, now that I am old?'  Is andything too hard for the Lord? I will return to you at the appointed time next year and Sarah will have a son."   Sarah was afraid, so she lied and said, "I did not laugh."  But he said, "Yes, you did laugh."
Genesis 18:13-15

  "Now the Lord was gracious to Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did for Sarah what he had promised.  Sarah became pregnant and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the very time God had promised him.  Abraham gave the name Issac, to the son Sarah bore him.  When his son Issac was eight days old, Abraham circumcised him, as god commanded him.  Abrham was a hundred years old when his son Issac was born to him.  Sarah said, "God has brought me maughter, and everyone who hears about this will laugh with me."

  This is proof that good things come to those who wait.  Maybe it is not pharased exactly as such but here it is plain and simple.  It is also good proof that nothing is too hard for the Lord.
   I am reading a book called "Walking with the Women of the Bible." by Elizabeth George.  It is a very good deveotional book.  I love how she points out the womens thoughts in it.  I feel now that somethings that haven't happened yet are so for a reason and if the things I am waiting for will happen it will be on God's will and timing not on my own.  He will point me in the right directions and hold me close to him through it all.  Maybe I am getting old too but I am not ancient and I still have a lot to learn.  I am loving my God on a whole new level these days.
