What’s The Point?

As I read this poem called,”What’s The Point” a few weeks ago on Facebook my heart was instantly encouraged by the words. Even now as I read over it reminds me of the verse in Isaiah chapter 55 verses 8 and 9 where it says, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
If you’re waiting for a future husband may I encourage you to rest in God. I hope this poem is a blessing to you.

What’s The Point?
By Josiah Schwartz

The point in waiting is to enjoy
To love and worship God
In every act of your life
Including the waiting.
And in the waiting
Remember His nature
That He is the Giver of every perfect gift
That He desires to lavish you with such treasures
Treasures that are worth the wait
Solely because He is in them.
Rest in this:
He is going to give you
Exactly what you need
At exactly the time you need it.
That is reason to smile
That is reason to breathe easy
And rest in Him.
Let go of “when” and “if”
Because His ways
Are so much higher than yours.
His thoughts
Beyond what you could ever fathom
Because He loves you.
Oh, how He loves you.
And that is the point
of your entire existence
To experience His presence
His love
Inside every moment
Especially in the waiting.
