       Let’s say you're waiting to find the right person to marry. There is nothing wrong with that, but don’t desire to be married so much that that’s all you think about and you don’t enjoy your singleness right now. God has told us to cast our anxieties, our cares, on him, and let him bear up under those things. We can live with peace of mind and in true freedom with all the strength that we need while we are waiting. For all of us, there are going to be times in life when there is something we don’t have that we want. Ideally, most of life should be spent being satisfied with what we have and not being in want. But God sometimes makes us wait on something, even when we need it, to teach us different things. Often times we think we are waiting on God for something—that he has to make the circumstances right to give us what he wants to give us. But really, many times God is waiting for us to be at the right spot in our life to give us what we desire and want. This may be a great position at work, a different career, a spouse, a child—whatever it is—sometimes God is working things in us to prepare us for that reward.
