Waiting
Here I am waiting at the hospital for my husband to go into surgery to have his gallbladder removed. It was supposed to start about a half hour ago but now the board show's it will start in 10 minutes. They have this new fangled board that show's the progress of the surgery. This could be good or it could be a crutch for me to stare at to see when they will be done and what is going on.
In a wied way though I do love hospitals. I didn't love sitting in an ER Room Friday morning from 2:00am till 8:30am trying to find out what was going on with my husband but I do love this part of listening to the buzz of the hospital and watching all the work that is going on. I know weird.
I don't know quite what else to do in my waiting time here. Think I will spend some time with God here when I'm done with this. Seems always a good place to spend time with Him. Maybe He'll show me someone I can talk with.
For now it's you who is reading this that I am talking too. There sure is a whole lot of waiting in life...waiting for the right man, waiting for the child to come, waiting through the heartache that can bring, waiting for the paycheck to come in, waiting for the next vacation, waiting for God's will to be done, waiting for the next good thing. I did a talk on waiting once and it seems I might need to go back and read my notes. I'm not so sure I"ve been waiting patiently lately. Sure have been doing some complaining and pushing for my own agenda. Lord teach me to wait on you correctly, to trust in you completly, to rely on your will and not mine and to take this specific time of waiting and lay it at your feet. Your timing is perfect!
