This is the first season of flowering Lilies in our garden since we returned to live in this cottage. We have rows of them at the edge of the meadow, which adds to colour and freshness. It was a long wait to see them blossom.
Between the time of planing and flowering there is a long waiting time. However the waiting ends in delight.
We are a generation of impulsive people on a hurry, impatient to wait. Many substantial benefits in life come only through a season of waiting. Think of a couple waiting for nine months to welcome their baby! It is both a time of anticipation and preparation. It is this period of suspense that adds to the excitement when the baby arrives. Normally a medical graduate takes about fifteen years to finish his or her training from the time he or she starts with the undergraduate studies. He or she endures it because of the benefit it would bring at the end of this.
There is meaning and purpose in waiting. It adds strength to our character and conviction!
