Waiting on the Lord

I am learning about waiting on the Lord.  I have always been a "doer", I have never been the type to stand on the sidelines and watch.  The Lord is asking me to wait on Him, and allow him to do the work in my husband's heart.  Oh, how hard this is!  There are so many things I want to do, so many things I want to say.  Nothing I do or say is going to change my husband's heart.  The only one that can change his heart is God, and I need to allow God to do his work.

How can the Lord do miracles in my life and marriage if I keep interfering?  How can the Lord work for the good of me if I keep taking control? 

I need to wait on the Lord.  His timing is always perfect, never early and never late.  He has proved himself faithful over and over again in the past couple of months.  I need to focus on those breakthroughs to keep me strong for the next breakthrough.

1 Peter 5:7- Cast all your anxieties on Him, for He cares about you. 

Psalm 27:14- Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord!
