I Waited — And He Wasn’t Late
Have you ever waited for something so long that you started to believe it wasn’t going to happen? Maybe you even gave up because it didn’t turn out the way you dreamed it would.
You were that small child sitting by the window, waiting for a parent who promised to come — but never did.
You poured your heart into a business, only for a partner to betray you and sign the contract without you.
You waited to have a child until marriage, only to hear the doctor say it’s too late.
Or maybe you lost your only child to tragedy — and along with them, your dreams, your laughter, your hope.
You prayed. You fasted. You waited.
And when it didn’t end the way you believed it would, you settled — maybe with other people, maybe with lesser dreams — like the woman at the well who had tried again and again, searching for something that could only be found in Him.
But God wants you to know — it’s not too late.
He’s waiting for you, just like He waited for her.
He wants to address your issue — not to shame you, but to heal you.
He wants to bring you into a new revelation that changes your reality and forever shifts your perspective.
When Jesus met the woman at the well, He asked her for a drink — but what He was really offering her was living water. He said,
“Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again,
but whoever drinks of the water I give will never thirst.
It will become in them a well springing up into everlasting life.” — John 4:13–14
That same well He dug in her heart, He wants to dig in yours.
The well He forms inside of you through worship, surrender, and love becomes a source others can drink from — a well that never runs dry.
God doesn’t want you to stay thirsty.
He’s offering you a drink — not from the world, but from His heart.
He’s even sending someone who will hold your cup with care — and when you drink from that love, you will never thirst again.
I waited.
I waited 6 years,
And Overcame my fears,
I waited like Jack did at the clock,
Like Jesus did when he left his flock,
Waiting for the one.
To return,
While I yearn,
Make it count for the Son.
The difference is our ship won’t sink,
and I don’t care what they think,
I waited.
like Jesus did at the well for a drink .
So You will never again thirst,
He sent me 6 years ahead first,
So I could teach you that sometimes dreams die and bubbles burst.
But don’t cry,
Dry your eyes,
Look to the skies,
Where your help comes from,
Because he saved us a seat not just a crumb.
I waited
He sent me 6 years first to give you a head start,
to outsmart,
the enemy.
So I could learn how to run and not fall,
So I could cover you until you learned to crawl.
I waited,
Placated,
with the promise of your love,
Thinking of,
how deeply you will drink from my well,
From the story we will tell,
How he sent me 6 years ahead first,
So you could see,
when you searched for me,
You would make it through better and for worse.
He made me wait,
But wasn’t late,
So you would recognize,
Not by surprise,
The love
We shared in eternity,
To infinity.
We chose then,
That we would always win.
He made me wait 6 years for you,
until you could believe our love is true.
So I like Jesus could prepare a path,
So you would know my humor and laugh,
Like Sarah did,
When God told them they would have a kid.
I waited
For our promise to live happily ever after
Now our joy is coming in the morning
And
we will live forever in his laughter.
