God Is Waiting
by Barbara Philbrook

God is waiting for you to call out His name,
asking for forgiveness and receiving the same.

Ask Him for wisdom and you will understand,
the cost of sin and the great Salvation Plan.

Ask for healing of your body's imperfection,
or that you be released from feelings of dejection.

Ask for the peace that passeth understanding,
and you will not be defeated but continue standing.

Ask for the grace which is sufficient for all,
and is poured out abundantly on each who call.

Ask for anointing so you may better serve,
God allows us to do much more than we deserve.

Ask it of God my friend and then believe,
you can be assured that what you asked for will be received.

God hears and answers every prayer,
and though we can not see Him we know He is there.

It may not be in our time or precisely what we sought,
but when God answers our prayers it's exactly as He ought.

He knows what's best for both you and me,
and He knows the end right on throughout eternity.

So of this one thing we are assured it is true,
God will always do what is best for me and you.

God is waiting won't you call out to Him today,
I know you won't be disappointed in any way.
