Sometimes it's hard to be patient while waiting for our desires that we are praying for. Sometimes things don't always turn out like we had planned or hoped. Sometimes we say prayers like, "Come on Lord, don't you understand how important this is to me?" Here is what God taught me one day when I was feeling impatient and in despair: Then I realized that the desires for ourselves and the desires that God has for us somehow have to come together, even if that means that what we want changes a little as we submit to God.
Certain things, whether on our part or God's timing and power, must line up. So in order to get to the desired outcome or "harvest," there must be a process-a process that will take time, nurturing, trusting, and patience. Sometimes, the process will even take us into the next life. But the process will always be worth it in the end if we have faith, patience, and trust in a God who has so much more to give us than we could ever imagine!
