I encourage you to write down all the things that you are still holding in your heart as unmet. These may be promises by others, promises from God that you have claimed and stand in, or desires you have for others.

Examine your attitude towards them beside this Scripture. Psalm 62:5 says, “My soul, wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from Him.” Waiting is a trial that causes the buried lies we have believed to surface. Impatience is the fruit of believing a lie. It is crouched in the subtlety of our own timing for the promise to be fulfilled.

Intimate communion with the Lord is a life-time pursuit of One. James 4:8 says, “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.” It is imperative that we release our broken expectations to the Lord.
