“A Patient Heart Can Wait”

Posted by eebakcuh on May 25, 2008

misty mountains

Streams in the Desert was just what I needed this morning to salve an impatient heart…

“Some glorious morn–but when? Ah, who shall say?
The steepest mountain will become a plain,
And the parched land be satisfied with rain.
The gates of brass all broken; iron bars,
Transfigured, form a ladder to the stars.
Rough places plain, and crooked ways all straight,
For him who with a patient heart can wait.
These things shall be on God’s appointed day:
It may not be tomorrow–yet it may.”
