Wait on the Lord!

Attended a bible study on the book of Esther today. Today's session was written just for me. Talked about the right time for doing things. Sometimes it is NOW, sometimes it is WAIT for my timing, sometimes it is WAIT on someone else's timing, and sometimes it is WAIT for God's timing. The difficult thing is knowing the difference and knowing when to WAIT and when to act. How exactly does one WAIT on the Lord? What does WAITing on the Lord entail? I find I want things to be my way and I want them now. Esther wanted to expose Naaman and his evil intents but more so she wanted to deliver her people. God gave her the opportunity to have Naaman's evil intent exposed. The King twice asked her to present her request to him. She waited for the right motive to be in her heart before presenting her request to the King. She waited for another banquet and then cleverly let Namaan 'hang' himself. She waited for the Lord's timing. And the Lord strengthened her and she was able to deliver her people. Her heart was not set on revenge and just getting what she wanted. Her heart was a servant heart that thought first of her people. She waited on the Lord. Will I wait on the Lord?
