Waiting

We went to the Adoption: Myths & Realities last night and had a great time!  Learned a lot about adoption and the Tapestry Ministry.  I have been looking at their website all day (shhh, don't tell my boss) and came across this that I absolutely love:

From Romans 8 (The Message): “That is why waiting does not diminish us, any more than waiting diminishes a pregnant mother. We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don’t see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy.  Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God’s Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don’t know how or what to pray, it doesn’t matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That’s why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.”

God is good, all the time!  All the time, God is good!  :)
