"Waiting"

(a poem by SD Gordon)

Steadfastness, that is, holding on
Patience, that is, holding back
E
xpectancy, that is, holding the face up
Obedience, that is, holding one's self in readiness to go or do
Listening, that is, holding quiet & still, so as to hear
How long, Lord, must I wait?
"Never mind, child. Trust me."

  1. Patience...that is definitely something I need to practice.
    Great poem, by the way.
