While I'm Waiting

I came accross the movie FIREPROOF this morning before I left for church. It just amazes me still how God talks to us in the most creative way. I stumbled upon this on John Mateos Ong's multiply site.

Lately my relationship with Jesus has been on a dry spell. I just miss Him so much lately but at the same time I'm not doing anything to look for Him. Yes I'm still doing church work and serving Him through different ministries but I don't feel Him in my life. And it just made me realize that ministry does not equate a relationship with God.

This morning during the worship service, Hazel said something about times that we just tend to sing these songs but not really feeling it or nothing is coming out of our hearts. But she just encouraged us to still sing, to never get tired of singing and worshiping God until the time our hearts are ready.

I just want to share the song from the movie. It's entitled While I'm Waiting by John Waller. It's really beautiful. I hope it will encourage you the way it encouraged me.

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.

An oh by the way, I think FIREPROOF is a REALLY GOOD MOVIE. I encourage all married couples and those like me who are going to marry soon to watch it. Trailer pa lang amazing na. I can't wait to see the movie.
