Wait expectantly on The Lord

Greetings:
I keep learning, over and over again – to wait on God expectantly.
God never, ever changes.
God remains faithful.
If we learn to step back and allow God the freedom to deal with a situation, he is faithful and will do just exactly what he says he will do.
When we let God be God, and allow him to do what only he can do, what a tremendous load that takes off our shoulders.
Things and situations in our lives can change on a dime.
Things can change that we never would have predicted could change.
Opinions can change.
People can change.
One of the greatest lessons in life we can ever learn comes from what is known as the "Serenity Prayer".
It reads: 
“God, Grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
The courage to change the things I can;
And the wisdom to know the difference."
It takes courage to show the love of Christ, instead of retaliating. Maybe that's why the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7: "Love is patient. Love is kind. Love does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; Love keeps no record of wrongs; it doesn't keep score. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.”
Do we have the courage to truly live those words or are they just meaningless words that we often hear as part of a marriage ceremony?
Do we have the courage to do what we know is right, even when someone else does wrong?
Do we let God work things out in his own way, in his own time?
Do we have the courage to simply trust our God?
Be blessed.
