On the Brink

Reading something 100 times does not change its meaning. Thank God.

What do you do when you have prayed at great length for something, only to find that your prayers are on the brink of being answered? Do you keep your “nose to the grindstone” and keep on going and working toward your goal? Do you freak out because you never thought it would truly come to pass and now it’s so close and you just don’t know what to do because there’s so much to prepare for and yet it’s still not a sure bet, but you trust in your Lord God, the Savior of your life?

Um, that last one is me. As though you couldn’t tell.

This news is not yet ready for prime time. But do not worry, dear friends. I will have something to tell you in 6 or 8 weeks.

Meanwhile, know this:

Romans 5: 1-5

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.
