"Be thou there till I bring thee word" (Matt. 2:13)
"Oh restless heart, that beat against your prison bars of circumstances, yearning for a wider sphere of usefulness, leave God to order all your days. Patience and trust, in the dullness of the routine of life, will be the best preparation for a courageous bearing of the tug and strain of the larger opportunity which God may some time send you."Streams in the DesertMrs. Chas. E. Cowman
It’s good to remember that our routine circumstances have a purpose and that patience and trust are the key to serving that purpose. Time for a second cup of coffee and a reflection on the routine ahead of me today.
