Helping Each Other Wait Expectantly

Last night I hung out with a couple of women who have walked a little ahead of me in certain life journeys. As I considered where they have been in light of where I am, and as I read the passage of Psalm 62 this morning, I am amazed.

Part of what Karen talked about, us needing to "stick together," is made more joyful when we realize the blessing it is to walk with each other and support one another. In the Amplified Bible, there's a portion of Psalm 62 that talks about trusting in, leaning into, submitting silently and waiting expectantly to and for the Lord.

In our fellowship with each other, my prayer is that it will go deep enough for us to understand the trials that others around us face, and that our fellowship will endure through the experiences that encourage us to "trust in" the God Most High; to "lean into" the Lord; to "submit silently" to His Lordship and to "wait expectantly" for the goodness we know is in Him.

I'm thankful this morning for those who encourage me to trust, lean, submit and wait with expectation. Lord, may I give to others at least what I have been given. Make in me a heart that walks with others and encourages them the way that I have been encouraged. Amen.
