Teach me, Lord, to wait

Great song, really hard to sing honestly.  I usually feel like the Lord has been teaching me to wait my entire life for one thing or another, and the lesson doesn't get any easier.  We wait for jobs, houses, relationships, kids, etc.  How many times does God have to show us that everything works out in the end for us to trust Him and not worry constantly about the petty things of this world.  When it comes right down to it, nothing on this earth matters enough to worry over.  There is nothing I can do or not do that will change God's ultimate plan, and I will be blessed in this life whether I am given the things I think I want or not.  "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."  "For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord."  God knows what the game plan is, and that is all I need to know right now.  "Teach me , Lord, to wait down on my knees 'till in your own good time you answer my pleas.  Teach me not to rely on what others do, but to wait in prayer for an answer from you. They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.  They shall mount up with wings like eagles.  They shall run and not grow weary.  They shall walk and not faint.  Teach me, Lord, Teach me, Lord, to wait."
