Insomnia.....While I'm Waiting

Insomnia


I can run with the best of them, but insomnia has been a struggle for me pretty frequently over the past two years.


I have, in the past, lain awake at night worrying. I tend to over analyze everything and so sometimes it is my racing mind keeps me awake.


But the past month, it has not been my racing mind that has kept me awake, but instead it has been my uneasy heart.

And last night, or better said, this morning I laid awake until 3:45.


If I had to be brutally honest I would have to say that it is not circumstance that causes me unrest...but the thought of the unkown.


I am capable to deal with the known, whether good or bad...but ask me to wait and I am a nervous wreck.

And, yet, here I am waiting.

I am waiting on the LORD.

In my time of waiting, this is what I am listening to, it is by John Waller, entitled "While I'm Waiting"

I’m waiting
I’m waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I’m waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait
I will move ahead, bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience
While I’m waiting
I will serve You
While I’m waiting
I will worship
While I’m waiting
I will not faint
I’ll be running the race
Even while I wait
I’m waiting
I’m waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I’m waiting on You, Lord
Though it’s not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting on You, Lord

So, I wait.

Come quickly Lord.
