Hi Michael,
May God grant your request, spoken or unspoken, as He knows everything about you, and the desires of your heart. Remember everything is in God's timing..It is hard waiting, but it is for our own good. Just keep busy praying, reading and meditating in the Word. Keep writing poetry or what ever come to mind. The things you feel in your heart(which God already knows) take time to write them down on paper, than if you desire tear the page up, this helps to get the things out that has been bottled up so long. You will feel much better. This will help you to settle down,
until the Holy Spirit tell you to move. This is good therapy......Writing it down...
God's blessing!
With God's Love.........

You wrote....I’m restless and want to do so much, and yet am restrained on every hand. I intensely desire to minister, to teach, to instruct others in the way of righteousness, to preach and to proclaim the glory and grace of the gospel to those in need of its cleansing and converting power.
One of the things that I have had to learn the hard way is to "wait" on the Lord. We have to understand that God knows what He has planned for us to do and He will open the doors when He is ready to use us. The devil cannot stop us so he ges behind us and pushes us faster than we need to be going.
He robs us of the joy that God wants us to experience for today. As far as the business and the life partner... those come in time as well. Patience is one of those virtues that we just dont want to hold on to for very long... Guess that it why we seem to have so much trouble with it!
Father...
I pray that You will touch Michael's heart and still his patience and let him know that You are in complete control and that You have his best interest at heart. Bless him in Your own way and lead him and help him to walk in obedience to Your wonderful Word and Your precious promises!

Michael, The only real peace we have is in Jesus. So rest in His Love and Peace, until the time comes for Him to open the door for His use.
God bless!

"…So justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us. We look for light, but all is darkness; for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows. Like the blind we grope along the wall, feeling our way like men without eyes. At midday we stumble as if it were twilight; among the strong, we are like the dead. We all growl like bears; we moan mournfully like doves. We look for justice, but find none; for deliverance, but it is far away…." (Isaiah 59-60)
(One may wonder these days.)

The problem with this last quote is found in the verses that precede it... 1 Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. 2 But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.
3 For your hands are stained with blood, your fingers with guilt. Your lips have spoken lies, and your tongue mutters wicked things.
4 No one calls for justice; no one pleads his case with integrity. They rely on empty arguments and speak lies; they conceive trouble and give birth to evil.
When we allow sin to run rampant in our lives THEN justice is going to be far from us and righteousness does not reach us.

Michael, It is so hard to wait and we all seem to want to tell God what is needed in our lives at some particular moment. We need to let God take over and do His will in His own time. I myself am waiting on the Lord. I am waiting for a biopsy result and it is burning in my heart - but I know it is in God's hands and whatever the result it is for His will and His plan. He is running the show and there is nothing we can do but wait for Him and pray to Him and give Him all our love and trust.
Blessings from your Sister in Christ

I am sorry Bob, but what you write is not correct. The Children of Israel sinned, and therefore the righteous among them did not see (gain) justice. They suffered from the non-observance from, and the pure evilness of, the strong and proud. Isaiah himself did not identify with the mob, the hypocrites, and the adulteresses, and so this passage from Isaiah reveals a complaint of him. He himself was holy unto The Lord our God. He let write: “Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness.” (St. James Bible)
