God Bless you and your family. This touched me! That scripture is so right. It is crazy that it is in the Word of God, but it is no mistake. God wants us to know that even one of His children who was after His own heart will get weary. Let us not be weary in well doing. We are also to remember Isaiah that says they that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength just to mention the first part of it.
God bless you! It will all be worth it in the end when we look back and say that was it? We are in a season of unemployment after my husband separated from the military early this year. We are choosing to do our part in using our talents and skills to the best of our abilities and then leaving the rest in His hands. Certainly not saying that this is the answer everyone gets, but I know that for us, this season has been all about who we trust for our provision; Him or the system of the world.
Oh, I have asked God this over and over. In fact, I think I referenced that very passage on my blog. I went through seven heartbreaking years… a season so long that I was desperate for it to just be done.
In the eighth year, I had to give my 19 year old son back to God. It was unexpected and left me reeling, though still praising and trusting God. I love God and I trust that him allowing my son to go home was merciful, but nothing stops the ache of losing a child.
How I wish I could come into a joyful season, but I know that God is right here with me. Thank you for these scriptures. In fact, I quoted that on my blog, as well, come to think of it. Love this post! I am taking baby steps towards learning to praise Him during the waiting period. While I am not experiencing many of the trials that most of the ladies commenting are going through, I am in a season of expectation and waiting…on the Lord to bring me my one day husband!
I am 33, and I have been through some tough realizations the past few years with men, and have taken this past year to really stay single and get closer to God! I am finding myself ready for that to begin. But…His timing. To keep following Him and letting Him guide me. He will grant the desires of my heart in ways that I could never imagine if I just keep waiting on Him.
It feels like my husband will never find a job. With each final interview that he goes on with these Fortune companies, we are hopeful and full of excitement. Then he is passed over. Especially this time of year when so much is required of us financially. I will praise the Lord for all we have, even if what money we have is dwindling. This season of waiting is the hardest of our lives. I hope and pray our marriage and our family make it through this. Thank you! I so needed to be reminded of this today.
I will praise God for He is faithful and His love is unending. I am where this Psalm is. I know God is there. I know He hears me. I am so tired and so weary. So tired of being sad. Of hoping only to see it vanish like mist. But, oh, it is so much harder than I thought it would be.
I have been putting in LONG hours of hard physical work that has not been as difficult as the emotional part of it and have not been in the Word other than verses here and there and reading short Psalms but not SOAPing or SOAKing because of exhaustion and circumstances.
Finally making time to read this post- what a blessing! Thank you for this post. My husband said some very cruel words last night and I cried myself to sleep asking God to take this pain away. I have lived with an emotionally abusive spouse for so long. This morning, he apologized by text. I have to remember that it is in His time alone…not mine. Your email address will not be published.

Skip to content Psalm 13 1 How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? Have you been there? Have you prayed and asked God — How long? How long will your trials last? How long until God answers your prayers? How long must you wrestle with your thoughts? How long must you suffer with sorrow? James - Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
Job - Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass; John - And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
Psalms - So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Psalm How long must I wrestle in my soul, with sorrow in my heart each day? How long will my enemy dominate me? Psalm My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Why are You so far from saving me, so far from my words of groaning? Jeremiah Why are You like a man taken by surprise, like a warrior powerless to save?
Do not forsake us! Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers. Why do You tolerate wrongdoing? Destruction and violence are before me. Strife is ongoing, and conflict abounds.
