Waiting For Our Time

When is our time? When is the right time? It seems to me that we can quite often, wait for a more opportune time to do something, rather than grasp the current moment. Well I do anyway! This could refer to wide variety of issues - relationships, career choices, housework (definitely), etc. By nature I am a cautious person, I like to deliberate on something before making a decision. Those that know me will know that football is the exception to this rule, where I say/do first, regret later!

It can be daunting meeting 40 people in a pub for the first time, as I did in Putney Saturday night, but if I had waited till I felt confident about that situation, I probably would never have gone, and met such nice people.

The bible tells us that God is with us at all times, and in all situations. If we believe this to be true, and offer our lives to God in prayer, then anytime could become our time. Yes we can make some bad decisions as well, as God has given us freewill. I find, however, that I have confidence that comes from God when I go his way, and a sense of insecurity when I do not.

The song of this title comes from the Cyclorama album. It is written I assume, about a boy/girl relationship, though some aspects of it can relate to faith as well. Talk of searching, wondering, yearning. Your love has kept my dream alive, a vision of my life, with you here by my side. Still I hold on and wait, I know it's not too late, and still my breeze will come.

I know that I need to stop waiting so much about some things, and just do them in the faith that God will say this is our time.


Waiting For Our Time

Looking up from where I stand
I see the vapor trail
Of a jet plane in the sky

Here the wheel is in my hand
But there’s no wind in my sails
And life is drifting by

Still I hold on and wait
I know it’s not too late
And my breeze will come

Muse you satisfy my soul
Keep me warm while the
Cold world guards the gate

I’m searching
I’m wondering
I’m yearning
Waiting for our time to come

I’m searching
I’m wondering
I’m yearning
Waiting for our time to come

Your love has kept my dream alive
A vision of my life
With you here by my side

Every forward step I take
Every moment I’m awake
I feel your love inside

So close I feel it in my bones
I know I’m not alone as I climb this wall
But I, sometimes I get so high
I just want to live, love
And taste it all

I’m searching
I’m wondering
I’m yearning
Waiting for our time to come

I’m searching
I’m wondering
I’m yearning
Waiting for our time to come

Here tonight
I lie awake and watch you dream
Under the light of the moon
I wonder just how far we’ve been
And where we’ll be
When the sun comes up
Will this be our date with destiny

I’m searching
I’m wondering
I’m yearning
Waiting for our time to come

I’m searching
I’m wondering
I’m yearning
Waiting for our time to come

And I’m waiting
