Are you settling in life or are you waiting on God to fulfill His promises in your life? When you settle on something, you come into agreement about it. Whether it is in regards to time, price, or conditions, what are you settling on and for in your life? What are you allowing to be “okay” in your life? What standard are you using when you decide to settle for situations in your life? Is it God’s standard or are you just settling because you have a fear of the unknown? Are you allowing fear of not knowing control what you accept in your life?
Many people settle in life because they feel as though they rather have something rather than nothing. They settle with a job and they settle in relationships. In some cases they compromise their standards in order to please people in their lives.
God has not called us to live a life of compromise or to settle. He said that we are to put our hope in Him. We are to trust Him and to believe that He will give us His best in life. We have to know that with our walk of obedience comes God’s blessings. We have to know that He is faithful, just, and kind. We have to know that settling for less than His best is not what He wants us to do.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Psalm 27:14

Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord
