Waitng for school to start
Waiting for the school bus,
Waiting for college,
Waiting for graduation,
Waiting for the stoplight to change,
Waiting for the washing machine to finish the load,
Waiting for the elevator to reach the next floor,
Waiting for dinner to finish cooking,
Waiting for the baby to go to sleep,
Waitng for the mail; waiting for the phone call,
Waiting for the weather to change,
Waiting for the job to be finished,,
Waiting for the garden to grow,
Waiting for that special guest,
Waiting for that special vacation,
Waiting for the fish to bite the bait,
Waiting to be married,
Wating to be parents,
Waitng to be grand-parents,
Waiting to go home.
We spend most of our life waiting, waiting can be
difficult,challanging and even joyful; however,
all of the waiting mentioned above is temporary.
There is a waiting that is eternal which is
really worth waiting for...
Looking for that blessed hope and the glorious
apearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus
Christ. Titus 2:13
May we all be WAITING FOR JESUS RETURN

Time is
Too Slow for those who Wait,
Too Swift for those who Fear,
Too Long for those who Grieve,
Too Short for those who Rejoice;
But for those who Love,
Time is not.
Henry Van Dyke
Other, more well-known lyrics by Henry Van Dyke-
Joyful, joyful we adore Thee
God of Glory, Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flow'rs before Thee
Op'ning to the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us with the light of day!
All Thy works with joy surround Thee
Earth and heav'n reflect Thy rays
Stars and angels sing around Thee
Center of unbroken praise
Field and forest, vale and mountain
Flow'ry meadow, flashing sea,
Singing bird and flowing fountain
Call us to rejoice in Thee.
Thou art giving and forgiving
Ever blessing, ever blest
Wellsprijng of the joy of living
Ocean depth of happy rest!
Thou our Father, Christ our Brother
All who live in love are Thine
Teach us how to love each other
Lift us to the joy divine.
Mortals, join the happy chorus
Which the morning stars began
Father love is reigning o'er us
Brother love binds man to man
Ever singing march we onward
Victors in the midst of strife
Joyful music leads us Sunward
In the triumph song of life.
Mom, loved what you wrote about waiting. It was beautiful and poetic. Also, you covered it well, the things that we wait for. May we remember, they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength They shall mount up with wings as an eagle They shall run and not be weary They shall walk and not faint Teach me Lord, teach me Lord to wait. Love you much. Your daughter, Lynelle
