“Wyatt Earp gazes across the Colorado River toward Arizona in this 1925 snapshot. After having lived 77 years on the frontier, he no doubt had plenty to reflect on.”

By the time this photograph was taken, Wyatt Earp was more than four decades removed from the gunfight near the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona, yet that brief confrontation continued to define him despite a lifetime marked by constant reinvention.

Over the years, Earp worked as a lawman, buffalo hunter, stagecoach guard, gambler, miner, saloon operator, and boxing referee. He chased opportunity across the American West, living in Kansas, Arizona, California, Alaska, and Nevada as frontier towns rose, prospered, and eventually faded.

In his later years, Earp settled primarily in Los Angeles with Josephine Marcus. The West he had once known was disappearing, replaced by automobiles, growing cities, and motion pictures that turned frontier figures into larger-than-life legends. He occasionally visited early Hollywood film sets, sharing stories of the Old West with actors and filmmakers eager to hear them firsthand.

Wyatt Earp died in Los Angeles on January 13, 1929, a little more than four years after this photograph was taken. He was 80 years old.

If I'm honest this has been a hard season for me lately. I've been struggling with trusting God's timing. I was reminded when reading Psalm 37 today that I am to be still before Yahweh and wait patiently. That Yahweh is good to those who wait for him and seek him, and it is good to wait quietly for God’s salvation (Lam. 3:25–26). This quiet waiting involves hoping in God’s word while the soul waits more intensely than watchmen awaiting morning (Psalm 130:5–6).

I was reminded that prior to preaching to thousands, for a season Peter went back to fishing after thinking he failed Jesus. That Paul sat in prison cells, Lazarus lay in a tomb, Jonah prayed in the belly of a fish, Hannah wept on the steps of the tabernacle, Joseph was locked in the captivity, and Moses stood in the fields of Median herding sheep. All before God made moves in his timing.

Times of waiting, while hard, remind us of the confidence we should have in God’s timing and character. When direction seems slow in coming, we're called to wait for it, assured it will come when the time is ready (Hab. 2:3). Yahweh himself waits to be gracious and show mercy, and those who wait for him are blessed, for he is a God of justice (Isa. 30:18). Rather than taking matters into their own hands, like I often am tempted to do, we are instructed not to repay evil but to wait for the Lord, who will deliver us (Prov 20:22).

Hoping for what is unseen involves waiting with patience (Romans 8:25), and through the Spirit and faith, believers eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness (Galatians 5:5). Waiting involves expectancy and hope regarding events and contingencies still in the future, it's the outworking of a spiritual posture directed at trusting God’s promises and timing rather than our own understanding.

Knowing all of this, writing here on X doesn't make my season of needing to wait any easier, but the consistent, inspired, inerrant testimony of scripture nonetheless gives me something solid to trust in. I am fickle, impatient, and finite. God is trustworthy, forbearing, and infinite. And his timing is right even if I don't know how or when things will happen.
