I have a huge Promise from God that is about to explode and waiting for it has been both exciting, yet frustrating. Something God spoke to me about in this time of waiting is fulfilling my purpose, while waiting on His Promise. Jesus demonstrated this perfectly as a 12 year old boy teaching to the priest. It was not until he was 30 that he was baptized and started his ministry and the promise God had on his life came to pass, but at an early age he was fulfilling his purpose.
Sometimes we get in a place where we are frustrated because the Promise is on it's way, but not here yet so we tend to go stagnate. A lesson learned here is to fulfill your purpose as a worshiper, an ambassador, a child of the King and be the salt and light of this world. Because it is in fulfilling your purpose that you can receive the Promise of God.
