The Best Place to Be

Scripture
Psalm 38:15 
I wait for You, O Lord.  You will answer, O Lord My God.

Observation
To wait means to remain inactive or in a state of repose - to be available or in readiness; to look forward to eagerly . . . to continue as one in expectation of. 
Bottom line: I wait for the Lord - He will answer me.

Application
There are so many voices shouting in my ear!  Waiting for the Lord's answer requires that I tune my ear to hear His voice, and make up my mind not to listen to the 'well intentioned' who all have their own opinions. Waiting for the Lord means I must trust in Him and patiently wait with eager expectation for His answer.  He is my Lord and my God - He knows me and hears my cries; He will respond when He's ready and when He knows I am ready.

Prayer
Father, fine tune my ear to hear Your voice.  Help me to wait for Your answer.  I trust in You.  I love You Lord.  I'm waiting for You.  I'm at Your feet listening; it's the best place to be.
