Wait

Waiting for me is really hard. I seem to want to jump at everything and not wait on the Lord for His timing. It has been a struggle for me for quite along time. I decided to look up verses on waiting..
Ruth 3:18 Then said she, "Wait, my daughter, until thou know how the matter turns out: for the man will not be in rest, until he settled it today."

Psalms 25:3 Indeed, none of those who wait for You will be ashamed; Those who deal treacherously without cause will be ashamed.

Psalms 25:5 Lead me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; For You I wait all the day.

Psalms 27:14 Wait for the LORD; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the LORD.

Psalms 33:20 Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.

Psalms 37:3-5, 7, 9 Trust in the LORD and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He will do it. Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. For evildoers will be cut off, But those who wait for the LORD, they will inherit the land.

Psalms 40:1 I waited patiently for the LORD; And He inclined to me and heard my cry.

Isaish 40:31 Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.

Isaiah 49:23b And you will know that I am the LORD; Those who hopefully wait for Me will not be put to shame.

Isaiah 64:4 For from days of old they have not heard or perceived by ear, Nor has the eye seen a God besides You, Who acts in behalf of the one who waits for Him.

Lamentations 3:25 The LORD is good to those who wait for Him, To the person who seeks Him.
