Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the Council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Kings shall be your foster fathers, and their queens your nursing mothers.

With their faces to the ground they shall bow down to you, and lick the dust of your feet. Then you will know that I am the Lord ; those who wait for me shall not be put to shame. O Lord , be gracious to us; we wait for you. Be our arm every morning, our salvation in the time of trouble. And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come.

Are there any among the false gods of the nations that can bring rain? Or can the heavens give showers? Are you not he, O Lord our God? We set our hope on you, for you do all these things. Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

Trust in the Lord , and do good; dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness. Indeed, none who wait for you shall be put to shame; they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous. Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you,.

Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then each one will receive his commendation from God. I will rebuke the devourer for you, so that it will not destroy the fruits of your soil, and your vine in the field shall not fail to bear, says the Lord of hosts. For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him.

He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken. Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. The words of Amos, who was among the shepherds of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.

So I will send a fire upon the house of Hazael, and it shall devour the strongholds of Ben-hadad. Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted. I was told by the doctor that I needed to have a biopsy because there was a suspicious growth. Never had I been faced with a situation like this and I began to cry out to God.

Prayer went forth on my behalf as fear tried to conquer me. I thank God for the prayers and encouragement of my family and the household of faith.

The biopsy was finally done after what seemed to be weeks of waiting. The test proved that I would need to have surgery to remove the growth.

This led to more waiting and not knowing what to expect. I committed myself in the hands of the Lord. God showed Himself mightily to me. A few weeks after the surgery, I was told everything was fine and the growth was benign. God indeed is a Healer. Although the waiting throughout that entire process was not pleasant, my faith increased. I have learned to really trust in the Lord. Today I know with surety that there is nothing impossible with God.

He is faithful and will deliver you on time. As a sister in the Lord, I encourage you as well. As you are waiting for His promise to you to be fulfilled, let Him be glorified through you. As you are continue to trust in His perfect timing, though it tarry, wait for it. It will surely come to pass. It will not tarry. Additional Translations Job Though I cry out, 'Violence! Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? Psalm How long must I wrestle in my soul, with sorrow in my heart each day?
