Hurry up. And wait. That seems to be the theme in renovation. :) No matter how you may push to have something happen, it probably won't happen in the time frame that you have in mind.
I went to the cabinet company to pick out my cabinets and counter top. However, I have to wait on them to come and measure, draw up the plan, approve it by me...before they can order the cabinets. Which takes three weeks. So it might be done by Tuesday. Maybe.
Asbestos. The company was supposed to come remove the tile floor yesterday. They couldn't. Have to wait on OSHA to approve that they can now come and take them out.
The general contractor can't even start on the drywall until the asbestos people do their part.
Hurry up. And wait.
God did that a lot in the Bible. He likes to do things in His timing.
Abraham and Sarah was one of the biggest examples of hurry up and wait. And they sure had a hard time of it. Even took things into their own hands and made their own plan. Oops. They had a hard time on the waiting part.
So, for the next month - maybe two for our family...hurry up and wait. What in your life is making you wait?
"Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord." Psalm 27:14
It will be worth the wait. It always is with the Lord!
