Advice and Lyrics

I found an email I saved with some advice from my friend Clarissa. It was in response to a different issue, but the concept applies now as well:

I think this is where you have to leave it to the Lord for right now. I
dont see how you are able to do anything, other than pray, that would be helpful.

And then I heard some lyrics to a contemporary song that struck me...

Sometimes, the last thing you want comes in first,
Sometimes, the first thing you want never comes,
And I know, the waiting is all you can do,
Sometimes... - Aqualung
