Waiting on the true source of comfort

Traveling the twists and turns of business life is never fun—especially in a severe economic downturn. And once again I find that I have looked at my own efforts as the way to get ahead. You’d think I’d learn at some point that all of this is in God’s hands—not mine.

Habakkuk 3:17-19

Though the fig tree should not blossom,
nor fruit be on the vines,
the produce of the olive fail
and the fields yield no food,
the flock be cut off from the fold
and there be no herd in the stalls,

yet I will rejoice in the Lord;
I will take joy in the God of my salvation.

God, the Lord, is my strength;
he makes my feet like the deer’s;
he makes me tread on my high places.

And so, I will worship while I’m waiting.
