Words of encouragement

I read the lyrics to this song in a daily devotional entitled Sarah's Laughter. This daily blog/email devotional has been such a blessing, providing encouragement and bringing my heart back to where it needs to be. This song just does it for me today. Thank you Jonny Diaz and Sarah's Laughter for sharing!

Here in this waiting room
Yearning for You to say go
And though I'm convinced that a yes would be best
This time You're telling me no.
It's not that I don't have an answer
It's just not the one that I'd like
But through this time Lord I must keep in mind
You're always wiser than I.
'Cause You have a much better purpose
And You have a far greater plan.
And You have a bigger perspective
'Cause You hold this world in your hands.
The things that I seek are from You
Like the strong healing touch of Your hand.
But when You say no help me trust even though 
There's a reason I can't understand.
'Cause You have a much better purpose
And You have a far greater plan.
And You have a bigger perspective
'Cause You hold this world in your hands.
Then that miracle comes 'cause Your answer is yes
I will praise You for all of my days.
But when Your wisdom declares that a no is what's best
I will praise You just the same.
