Thursday Thought

I read this quote in the Bible study I am doing called Live A Praying Life by Jennifer Kennedy Dean and wanted to share it with you:

At our first entrance into the school of waiting upon God, the heart is chiefly set upon the blessings which we wait for. God graciously uses our need and desire for help to educate us for something higher than we were thinking of. We were seeking gifts; He, the Giver, longs to give Himself and to satisfy the soul with His goodness. (Andrew Murray, Waiting On God)

How has the school of waiting led you to get more of God and to find satisfaction in His unique brand of goodness? A good question to ponder today...
