Sitting Idly in Park - A Poem About Waiting on the Lord

Sitting Idly in Park

God often takes a lot of time,

As he prepares an amazing new door,

For each of his heirs to walk through.

Doors that will lead to a new adventure in life,

Doors with the purpose of keeping his people,

Moving toward His heavenly throne.

Who doesn't want to arrive,

In front of God's throne to hear,

“Well done, good and faithful servant,”

As God has us sitting idly in park,

Sandwiched between two doors,

One behind us firmly closed,

One in front of us being prepared to swing wide.

There is no sense in knocking on the front door,

Because God won't answer until He,

Has set the scene and we,

Have prepared ourselves by,

Imprinting His teachings upon our heart,

Then, we will be ready to finally embark,

Upon a carefully planned, exciting journey,

A patiently prepared black belt warrior,

Overflowing with the Spirit of God.

A master of the Sword of the Spirit,

Ready to begin a new task for our Lord.

That is why God often takes a lot of time,

As he prepares an amazing new door,

For each of his heirs to walk through.
