Wait.

Philemon 1:22:


 But, meanwhile, also prepare a guest room for me, for I trust that through your prayers I shall be granted to you.

Seems pretty straight forward, right? It's kind of a random verse that stuck out to me, girls, just today, and I wanted to share it with you.  At the end Paul basically says, "Hey, I'm hoping to come around sometime. Make a room ready for me because I'm coming-- Lord willing."

No one knew how long it would be before Paul showed up on Philemon's doorstep.
         That could mean a few months, maybe a year, or maybe even more.

It is  tough  to wait.
Waiting for a close friend who you desperately need.
 Waiting for the man that God has for you....
  Waiting to graduate from high school or college

So my challenge:
WAIT.

Wait in the LORD.

Wait for the man that he created especially for you.
    I know how hard it is.

    But wait.

Wait until you're married to enjoy sex and your guy fully.


Wait.

Like Philemon, we have no idea how long we are supposed to wait. I'm challenging myself this week to prepare the guest room in anxious anticipation. With eager expectation and hope.

Girls, in faith, let's prepare this guest room. Expecting the Lord to provide.
