Let me remind you of what He says:
Isaiah 30:18
[ The LORD Will Be Gracious ] Therefore the LORD waits to be gracious to you,and therefore he exalts himself to show mercy to you.For the LORD is a God of justice;blessed are all those who wait for him.

Yes Jesus is HERE NOW, and we do believe, and are saved in Him, but this also applies to us waiting ON Him in cirucmstances--- we who are faithful waiting on the Lord, it is they who will be blessed. Also see Lamentations 3:25

I mean Jesus is ALIVE now- not here on earth-- He is living in those who are saved, through the Holy Spirit- He is God!

God's timing is always best!
As i look back over my life, I see that if things happened when I wanted them to happen, it would have sometimes been the wrong timing, as I see part of the bigger picture.

Yet another out of context "lesson" from the Old Testament. If I were still just merely a Christian I would say this to you:
Christ is Lord. Isaiah was the prophet used to justify JC's ministry and ultimate sacrifice. The Lord came 2000 + years ago. He is there for us now. All we need do is BELIEVE.
That answer your question?

does get hard sometimes for all of us... we live in a fallen world and it's getting worse. I am looking for God to show up and show out before we are taken out of here. We need to believe and get busy doing what He has called each one of us to do so He can. We are who He uses to do great and mighty exploits through sure don't want the rocks to cry out, or an *** to speak up in my place.<><

My daughter has a best friend who has bone cancer and a brain tumor. She has a few months left to live. I'll bet she is getting tired of waiting on the lord.
Ditto for the other thousands of kids who have cancer and aids and birthdefects. If there is a god out there then let's see some action!!!

Progress and improvement is must build by our self no one will do it for us... be practical there are still people who worse then us but no GOD has exist to help them.... if he did there will no one in suffer... faith must be in your capability.... do your best and be a GOD to your life....

Yes, patience is one of the so-called "fruits of the Spirit" that has yet to grow in abundance on my tree!
I have the hardest time trusting God's timing on things. Though I know he is always right, and his ways are perfect, I am so stubborn and tend to think he needs my "help" from time to time that I complicate things unnecessarily.
Thanks for that verse---it's a great one.

If I were a man and I wanted people to believe in my god but had no proof, I would write a scripture lust like that, wouldn't you?
That way, no one asks questions
