Lev. 20:26

We are holy to God, because He is holy and He has SEVERED us from other people so that we could be His!

Wait....
Wait....
Wait...
Ok; Now wait some more.
We hate to WAIT don't we?  Waiting is actually becoming a lost art and forget waiting patiently!
We've lost this important ability because there are fewer and fewer things we have to wait for.  We have FAST food, call waiting (which means we don't have to wait), texting, INSTANT messaging, digital photography, and email to mention just a few examples.
Well, isn't this good?  Who wants to wait?  What could be good about having to wait?
The Bible says, "The LORD is good to those who wait for Him, To the soul who seeks Him.
It is good that one should hope and wait quietly For the salvation of the LORD. "
Waiting and patience are Godly attributes.  When we don't learn to wait we get ourselves into all kinds of messes.  Many, many times "no" doesn't mean NEVER it simply means WAIT!!  God has a perfect plan for us and when we can't wait we take a detour that leads us into unplanned, unsafe territory.
God's plans are always worth the wait.  Always. 
Wait children.  Don't TAKE for yourselves, less than all that God wants to give you if you will just WAIT on Him.  He loves you, He has such a glorious plan for you.  Wait.  It will be worth it.
