31 days of learning to wait - here we go!

Once again, I had trouble making a decision. Do I try to do this "31 Days" thing with The Nester and other bloggers?  I've done a topic for a month on my own before, but I gave myself a lot of flexibility back then.  And what should I write about all month these days? 

Someone suggested motherhood.  Another suggested politics (but I feared losing "friends" with my passionate opinions). Nothing like waiting to the last minute, right? I wanted to write about something fun or something easy, yet I couldn't figure it out

But this month I am going to write on a topic that troubles me. Waiting.

I thought by thirty-one years of age, I would be pretty much done with waiting. Or I thought I would have at least figured it out by now.   Yet here I am. Instead of having my life all nicely packaged together within a white picket fence,I sit here waiting for some answers to hard questions, waiting for results, and waiting for whatever is next.  To be honest, I am so over waiting.  Apparently, God has other things in mind.

This month I am going to blog about learning to wait.  I'll share stories of seasons past, insights for the present and future, and probably a lot of questions, too. So please join me this month as I wander through the struggles, the blessings, and the process of learning to wait.
