Our part is to wait by faith
His is to restore
To us is given to believe
In Christ the risen Lord
Our part is to hope each day
And His the Spirit send
Our part is to run the race
His to keep
Till journey’s end!
Acts 1:4 KJV …but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.

Wait for the Lord. Be strong and let your heart take courage. Yes wait for the Lord. Psalm 27:14
I don’t know about you but waiting is far from my favorite things to do. Yet surprisingly this verse is one of my favorites because it is written as if God could read my mind. (Oh wait…Yes He can!). You see when I go to the grocery store I need a list. First I have to write the list. Then- on the good days when I remember to bring it- I read the list and check off items while I am shopping.
This verse it written like that. Wait for the Lord it begins – then after we employ the courage God gives in the battle God reminds us on the way home -you still need to wait. Our job is not over. But the most important thing for us to know about the waiting is that we do not have to wait for the Lord because He is late. He asks us to wait because we are early!
While a vow of silence is not a permanent lifestyle that God wants there is something to be said for a silent hour, a moment and a prayer. Silence can be the doorway through which God’s Holy Spirit enters so that we can hear beall He is longing to say.
