Tired Of Waiting

Acts 25:10-11
10-11Paul answered, "I'm standing at this moment before Caesar's bar of justice, where I have a perfect right to stand. And I'm going to keep standing here. I've done nothing wrong to the Jews, and you know it as well as I do. If I've committed a crime and deserve death, name the day. I can face it. But if there's nothing to their accusations—and you know there isn't—nobody can force me to go along with their nonsense. We've fooled around here long enough. I appeal to Caesar."


Paul has been in prison going through multiple trials and waiting his judgment for more than two years. Imagine being Paul, whose whole life is devoted to sharing the gospel, to be cooped up for more than two years. He wants to get out there and do his job.

Sometimes, i can relate to Paul here, not to say that I've been in prison waiting for judgment, but to know that my job is to share the gospel, but to be hindered in your situation. His situation is his jail, my situation is my new environment where God has placed to me to start fresh. Sometimes it is frustrating and want to go out there and be effective, but God is guiding me through my trails.

Father God, I pray for patients, and I pray for your strength through my trials. I know that you have set plans to use me, and I pray that I may be used effectively for You. I pray for your harvest, for open hearts, and for great things to come to Seattle. I give you all the glory in Jesus mighty name.
Amen.
