Wait

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. ~ Isaiah 40:31

Life gets tedious.
Even the good times,
sitting around, visiting,
enjoying...driving each other crazy.
Life gets full of business,
lists and obligations, requests and shoulds.
We burrow through, intent,
determined...or procrastinate.
Still, working or avoiding,
the focus is on the shoulds, doing right.
How do we escape? Relax,
give in, surrender. Turn it over
and let it go. Let God.
Wait on him, and suddenly
the wide world raises us, soaring.
