Waiting and Reliance Upon the Unseen
Lamentations 3:25-36
The LORD is good to them that wait for him, to the soul that seeks him.…


When William Marconi, sitting among his instruments on the eastern coast of Newfoundland, with the great skeleton tower of wires rising high into the air, waited confidently for his first message across the broad Atlantic by wireless telegraphy, — waited, and got it, — he furnished to all time a home illustration of faith in an unseen reality. And so, when a message from God comes to the believer's soul, though God is unseen and the message unrecorded, save upon the unseen tables of his heart, none the less — not one particle the less — does the believer perfectly confide in it. Nothing can do more for a person than this reliance on an unseen world. It more than doubles his resources. It adds the other and greater world to this, and makes him master of both.
