I was listening to KSBJ this morning on my drive to the office, and I heard one of the DJs telling a story about their 2 year old who loves yogurt. The young one went to the refrigerator and found some yogurt in the freezer. Now this was not frozen yogurt like ice cream, this was actually yogurt that was frozen, and it was solid. Well the little one dug and tried to chip away at the yogurt, but got nothing, and got no where and just got frustrated… Her mother took the yogurt and told her we would have to wait for it to thaw. Well after sitting the yogurt on the counter to thaw, the little girl start saying, “I want my yogurt mommy, it’s mine and I want it now.” Her mother explained that it was frozen and if she were to get it, she would just be frustrated like before, she would try to get something, but would just work in vain…
And then the DJ said, “isn’t this how all of us act sometimes towards God?” We want what we think is best for us now, and if we can only step back and pray, and wait on God. God maybe saying to you, “the yogurt is still frozen, my beloved child, and for now you must wait.” How hard it is for us to wait on the Lord, ah but when that yogurt thaws, it will be the best treat we have ever had!
