The Covenant plasma pistol is often one of the most underrated weapons in the Halo series because it is the one that is most frequently used incorrectly. While its’ basic setting can be used to rapidly fire off small pulses of energy, they aren’t terribly effective and rarely result in anything other than wasted effort… but when it’s patiently charged for maximum effectiveness, one blast will completely decimate a full energy shield and even stop vehicles dead in their tracks. When fired impatiently, it makes a lot of noise without any actual impact… but in the hands of a patient gamer who understands how to wield it properly, it is a game-changer.
Waiting for the Lord to act on my prayers is not always easy, but trying to take matters into my own hands rather than patiently resting in faith is about as useful as rapidly firing a plasma pistol at an incoming Banshee. As excruciating as it can be to wait, it is the combination of our faith in His promises as well as our patience with His timing that we will see the largest mountains in our lives move. Let’s endure our current waiting season with the confidence of a Spartan holding a fully charged plasma pistol as a Ghost bears down on them… the Lord is never early or late, and if we hold fast to our faith we will find we aren’t just waiting. We are charging up. 🙂
But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31
The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him. It is good that one should hope and wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord. Lamentations 3:25-26
