Never would've thought that I'd come back to this masterpiece in 2023 to seek comfort for what I'm currently going through....like the watchman waits for morning, Lord I will wait for you😊
I'm here too to find comfort with what I'm going through. This is truly a masterpiece.
@@keturahmtonga4557 may it be well with you 🥰
@@Siyabusiswa Thank you 😊
I thought it was just me, I’ve also come back here to find comfort. I’m done taking matters into my own hands, I will wait. 😊
Heard it first around 2015 and im back Again!!!
Who still comes to watch this in 2020? This never gets old 🥰
Me.... When i am astray i always come here and reminded of how I used to be and will forever be
Watching this right now lol

QueenRiica Chile 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Never gets old at all!!!
It's 2022 and I still watch this...
ALSO, I have FOUND HIM!! He definitely was worth waiting for. Its true, "you're not asking for too much, you're just asking the wrong person"
I like that!!
I am thankful to have this as my truth!! Years of the lie...It is an amazing feeling.
Same. Even his family was worth the wait. What a soft & beautiful love.
I'm so glad you found him too. Nothing thrills me more than a black woman being LOVED loved😍🥰
2023 and here I am 😁
It’s February 2023 and I still come back!! Amazing.
The fact that he was there !!!!! In the crowd . Watching her perform this . Her future husband !!!!
@ Keke Does Disney
Wow that's amazing,I didn't know that
God is faithful
One of my favorites! Came back to listen in 2024!!!❤❤❤
"I will no longer get weighted down from so called friends and family talks about my biological clock because I serve the father of time"
Daaaaaang
that line thoooo
author of time
Yessss!
God is truth and he is eternal, and peace and all loveing look to Jesus Christ he alone can save your soul John 3 16 then revaluation allso and read Matthew 24 all of it and then read Daniel allso and read the whole truth the word of God Amen
This was the part that spoke to me most as well
It’s 2023… it’s safe to say this is a timeless piece ❤
Yes, at this point I know it word for word
Yes but what has happened to her marriage ?
Who is still watching this in 2019????
Fiifi Gaisie ✋🏽
Me!! ✋🏽
Fiifi Gaisie me
✋🏾 I’m here for it!!!
Fiifi Gaisie I met her last night... such a genuine person! I had to come back and watch this !
I come back to watch every so often just to remind myself WHY I'm waiting. Everything is God's perfect timing.
me too
Nikki Dunn ~reading through these comments and couldn’t help to ask- are you still waiting for his timing?
@@christinajean761 I got derailed but I've since dusted myself off and I'm back on track. 😉
💯💯
Any updates?
I first came across this poem right before meeting someone I thought I’d marry in college… that was 11 years ago. I’m still single, no prospects, the wait is not easy but I’m trusting God. It’s midnight & I was reminded of this poem. If you’re out there waiting, keep seeking God. Trust His timing, & His choice for your kingdom spouse. Don’t try to do it on your own. That’s all I got for now (speaking to myself too) 💕
U don't have to wait I've seen this u n me are done
@@erikalaplante4464 I rebuke that in the name of Jesus ❤️🫶🏽
The worst feeling is when you THINK you had the one but messed it up and now you see them with someone else… 😢
@@authenticallyseen How are you doing these days???
I recited this poem my freshman year in college for a class. Now, 27 single with a full ministry. This poem really helps me remember that i'll always wait for Gods Best and to be okay if it is just Me and God 💕 I will wait for You!
You're amazing 👏 I'm practicing and trying to motivate myself to recite it for my Church ❤
I’ve been in three relationships since I first saw this video when I was 17 (10 years ago) and each relationship ended with me coming back to this video and crying because of the overwhelming sense of shame, embarrassment, and regret. I’m thankful that the Lord gives us more than one chance and has a beautiful plan and purpose for us that’s better than anything we could even try to “force” to work out. I pray that this will be the LAST time that any of us will have to watch this video as a reminder…in Jesus’ name! ❤️🔥
She spoke her husband into existence! Who still watching this in 2017?
Sharica Andrews - and 2018🙏🏾
2018... been listening since it first hit the scene
Here June 2018!
Not me
Sharica Andrews really though 🙌🏿😃
i've been listening to this beautiful poem for 5 years. still waiting.....
Phathu Phathu well dang, that's very discouraging. luckily, you can't foresee the future.
+Shelly Bellz God bless you in your period of patience.
VICTHERICAN thanks :)
If its meant to be it will be . The key is to wait as if your not waiting. Stop listening to this video everyday and just pray may help.
Madame Yk i don't listen every day lol. maybe about twice a year.
I played this many years ago and one valentine's day I was single, depressed and absolutely devastated because of having my heart broken so many time's; I played this poem and cried and prayed... The next year I met my husband. It's always a good idea to wait on God.
What month the next year did you meet your husband?
@@ash86marie September 2016 I met him
That’s so seeet
I’m sorry, but I’m not sorry. I heard this poem 10 years ago, and God has brought me back to this video tonight, 10 years later......I could not be more blessed by this word❤️
"but to my FATHER, to my FATHER, who has known me before I was birthed into this earth, if YOU should only see fit. I DESIRE YOUR WILL ABOVE MINE, SO EVEN IF YOU CALL ME TO A LIFE OF SINGLENESS...my heart is CONTENT to YOU the ONE who was sent" [Poet Janette...ikz] -
love this line!!!! IT'S SPEAKS TO WHERE OUR HEART SHOULD BE. OUR DESIRES SHOULDN'T TRY OR SUPERSEDE THE WILL OF GOD!!! LOVE IT!!!
"That I knew he wasn't you from the beginning...because In the beginning was the word and he didn't even sound or shine like your son!" DEEEEEEPPP!!
🙌🏾
Hmm
I found this last September and I was so depressed and prying peace today I am healed and in such a better place and going on 5 months with my love
BEAUTIFUL CONGRATULATIONS
I remember watching this when i was 25& single and it spoke volumes to me. I’m 31 still single and happily waiting. It’s hard and heartbreaking seeing others progress and move forward when you seem stuck and the devil will have you think you are forgotten but i try not to dwell on that. Praying for my future husband, enjoying my season and cheerfully serving in the Church keeps me going. ❤️
Thought i was the only one... Thanks
@@roseannmuriithi275 we got this love!!
Same here sis ❤
@@naseemkhalili6144 stay strong dear❤️. The devil will not win.
I stumbled across this beautiful poem with hopes of success of my own endeavors , this gave me peace and confirmation on my own deep contemplation .... thank you 💞💞💞💞💞snaps snaps snaps 🥰you made my day literally suddenly I feel everything is going to be okay
Ladies I know it is hard to wait, but trust God. Gods way is the best way. When you obey His law you avoid a lot of pain, and heartache. Wait on God and know He has a person for you. He says seek first Him and his kingdom and ALL things will be added to you. And God is not slack concerning His promises. A man that honors God with his mouth and his life. A man who strengthens your faith and pulls you closer to God. A man who you can pray with, and praise with. No he won't be perfect, and there is no perfect man. But don't settle for anything less than what you know God wants for you. Many woman get impatient. But if you go outside of God to get something, you have to stay outside of Him to keep it.
Heck Kane God bless you....your last statement was for me..thank you
Amen to that !
Awesomely penned!!!!
Heck Kane So profound and I keep on having to remind myself that God has good plans and that statement about the godly man i will cherish it forever. God bless you and thank you.
Amen ! well said . I will wait on the lord in whatever decision he knows that suits best for me
"I pray I'm always on a mission about my father's business"...my favorite part. ...
I have waited on God’s timing for 10 years. I’ve developed a deep relationship with the Lord. I am blessed to have had these 10 years. He is a good good Father. I feel the Holy Spirit is preparing me to meet my husband tomorrow. But even if He doesn’t, I will continue having a faith like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. ❤️🥰🙌🏽🙏🏽
It's 2023 and I'm still watching. Amazing. 🥰😍
Janet just mentioned everything I didn't do.. and with that, I found my self in solitary confinement for 22years with 2men, 1daughter, 2divorces, and still unsatisfied. I know now, that true contentment is found in JESUS CHRIST!!!!...and now I am happy.
🙌🏾
and her husband's name is Matthew!!! I love how she stated it in her poem and didn't even know they'd marry!
Delisha Jackson ohhh wow, I didn't even think about that, that's so true!!!
Please tell me when never heard it
Yeah, I’m trying to link it, but, it’s called “I Waited For You”
Elizabeth L. But can you tell me where in this poem she says Matthew?
Miriam Herndon at approximately 6:05-6:10
2024 🦋🙏🏽 this piece is forever in my heart 🫶🏽
2019....I'm at the point where I'm ready to sit in my bed, alone, and write poems about how I will wait for him.
After watching this many times i broke up with my boyfriend ´cause "all he could whisper was sweet, empty, nothings which meant NOTHING " Thank God for changing my view through you Janette Ikz, be blessed.
Girl, God getting me there too. God bless. Sweet nothings!
Amen !
Naancy B Hey! when u get a chance if u cud check out my poetry and music page that would be awesome:) and gime some criticism and feed back that wud be awesome 😎😎
👏🏾👏🏾
Same!
I loved this. Glory to God!!! I decided to wait at the age of 16. I've never fell in love, and i have never had a boyfriend. I remember my words to God were " I give you my heart, take care of it. Don't let it fall in love until I see the one you chose for me" and God did so. I'm 22 right know and I can tell that God is faithful and he truly get serious every word you speak to him. I'm still single and I'm proud because God saved me from many heartaches and sadness. It is worth all the wait. God is always in time. I'll keep running to God and to his purpose for my life and I will one day eventually see a man by my side running with me. God's timimg is always perfect!!
PS: sorry about my English. God bless you all!!!
Lovely prayer
Amen sis, may you remain encouraged in the Lord and strengthen in his spirit
Jinny Woo Can you give me advice about you did it a and how you can wait??
Amen.
wow. awesome. I'm 23. been waiting since I was 17. it helps and makes it easier to have likeminded godly friends
Amen Sista!!!!! 35 years now with the one who looks like my daddy Jesus in all he does. Worth the wait!!!! Loved this so much. Thank you for the TRUTH you are speaking💖
Hello future me who has come once again to remind herself, keep waiting girl!

09.07.2023
SHE. HAS. BARS!!
Us christian youtubers need to stick together. ;) Blessing yo.
Jereton Definitely
Jereton You are absolutely right
That's so true😭😭😭
Yes, and I'm not even a youtuber lol
We need to
It's been 11 years now since I've listened to this poem and I am still waiting. Thank Janette for sharing your heart and Godly wisdom. :)
🦋💝🦾🌻
I will wait for. Currently at my lowest, not nearly as perfect as this woman but trust me im still worth it. I know you're out there somewhere. I will wait for you, please wait for me.
Not sure if I've ever cried so hard while listening to something. This is so completely eye-opening it's like a slap in the face.
Don't beat yourself up sis we all make mistakes. That's why we got a great God up in heaven that fixes us and forgive us and we can brush ourselves off and move on
Yaah gal, I feel you. Thanks God for His grace and unconditional love.
I’m half laughing half crying here
🦋🌻🦾
At minute 2.25 though... "He couldn't even pray when I needed him to, asking him to fast would be absurd; so forget about being cleansed and washed with water through the Word" Sums it all up perfectly. No man who is not of God will do. His works will always be inferior to the standards set in Ephesians 5
When I was watching this poem as a teenager, I never thought this was apply to a guy. After getting my heart broken, I returned to this poem as a grown man and felt every word. I'm glad this is still around.
Her wedding vows brought me here. But God damn if she didn't explain me in both this and that one. Shes my soul bff man. Janette, reach out love. I get it and im behind your progress. I need you girl!
Her story encourages me so much because she trusted God weather single or married and now 6 years later she is married and have a daughter. Never give up and continue to trust God because you will reap a harvest if you faint not!!!!
Literally pausing the video and taking notes!
Vivi33 can u post it here
I am doing the same
Wow. I was 19 years old when I first saw this lovely masterpiece! Now, rewatching/re-listening in 2024, is fostering nostalgic memories of my first time hearing it, and is encouraging new emotions and thoughts as a 30-something year old person.
🗣1+1+1=3 which really equals 1 when you add HIM 🙌🏾❤️ my God yes! I’m here in 2021 getting blessed by the rain outside and this Queen 🔥
She killed it. I was snapping on my room the whole time like a weirdo xD
To my future Wife, hope you waiting for me coz im on my way! ☝😉
you better hurry
I'm still waiting. Come already
Amen
Favoured Mosebi Jr Are you still waiting?
😩😍
This never gets old❤️❤️
I haven’t watched this since I was like probably like 14 years old & now I’m 26 sitting here in tears because I’m like I get it now 🥹 I can wait lord!!
Re-watching this again after watching her wedding vows. Shows that God has a plan for everyone and even though it might seem like its taking ages it is still going to happen eventually.
This is something I need to listen to EVERY SINGLE MORNING!
+Jamie Lopez Me too, Listened to it again this morning. God bless you!
Jamie Lopez about to set it as my alarm haha
I know that’s right!!!
2021, just for a refresher, still going strong. This message gives life at each listen. 🗣💎 #wait
Yes it does!!!
2024!
its sad how i always comeback listening or reading this, but im thankful for this piece for reminding me always of the beauty of waiting.
This was beautiful! This poem reminds me of my husband and I knew he was from God when we met. He didn't show up in a grand way, he just showed up and it was love at first sight. After dating for three weeks and getting to know each other, we got married a week before Christmas. Ten years and five kids later, we're still going strong. God has blessed everyday of our life and marriage, we have survived situations that would have broken the normal marriage or relationship apart.
Wow what a testimony! When God is in it, nothing can stand between it. Thank you for sharing
so yall married after only three weeks of dating
+aslen7 yes we got married three weeks after meeting!
Him coming period is a grand way to me lol. That's beautiful that you got married soon. I always found it odd when Christians would court for years.
Most Christians court for years was either the guy holding out for something better or they were saving up for the wedding and deposit for a home.
Im muslim and i cant stop listening to this!
+Ali Yousuf Very happy to hear that! So glad it's touching you 👍
hey its the holy spirt talking to you don't fight it allow god to pull you into his kingdom
Femmes Elues de l,eternel Nah im good where im at, I just enjoy poetry thats all
well if you like poetry you should listen to jesus is god by Preston perry
Femmes Elues de l,eternel lool thanks for the suggestion
When I first heard this i was very young and didn't understand this poem. I just thought it was clever. Oh i get it now lol
Still coming back to this in 2023. 🙌🏻 First saw it in 2015. Still waiting on the Lord.
This is like my 20th time watching this lol. Speaks to me every time.
+Sieara DeLone i cant count how often ive gone back to this poem. my most favorite of all time!!!
Sieara DeLone Hey! when u get a chance if u cud check out my poetry and music page that would be awesome:) and gime some criticism and feed back that wud be awesome 😎😎
Preach . I listen to this whenever I forget that God is in charge
I saw this many years ago but this hits deeper more than before. I’m turning 30, still not married. I recently ended a beautiful relationship with a man who I thought was my soulmate. He helped healed me. But he is a different religion and his family rejects me. So here I am alone again. I finally surrendered my whole life to God. Sometimes He has to isolate you and remove people from your life that you put first so you can make God first. I am more healed with Him in my life
I sit here wondering of how much I can get away with and still be saved! That just put me in tears! Jesus fix my heart please.
Needed this again. Sobering.
👍
God gat us
girl
Best poem hands down by any P4CM poet! They are all dope but I love Janette!!!! This poem just encourages my soul!!!!!!!
Yes, she is so dope!!!
Hm. I also love Chris Webb's stuff and Ezekiel.
"I will know you because when you speak I will be reminded of Solomon's wisdom. Your ability to lead will remind me of Moses. Your faith will remind me of Abraham. Your confidence in God's word will remind me of Daniel. Your inspiration will remind me of Paul. Your heart for God will remind me of David. Your attention to detail will remind me of Noah. Your integrity will remind me of Joseph and your ability to abandon your own will, will remind me of the disciples. But your ability to love selflessly and unconditionally will remind me of Christ." ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Wow...beautiful
THAT. RIGHT. THERE!!!!
I found this 10 year ago and I'm still waiting. However, I have never been so content. WONT HE DO IT! Hold on and look to the sky from where your help comes from SIS AND BRO!
the facial expressions at 4:49 are priceless..this lady is the business!! Awesome!!
the guy behind her to LOL
His first name Luke, his last name warm...I love it! I will wait for you plz say you'll wait for me too😊
Having to come listen to this every once in a while because its easy to fall for an "almost" guy. This truly is a powerful word.
Amen🙋♀ I will wait on you!!! No more Luke Warm men.... Married or single I'm content in u Lord
That was beautiful, eventho im 4 years late its good to know there's a woman out there willing to wait for me.
DtownCboy Her wait is over. She's married now, and they just had a baby
Am I the only one who came back to this video to see if I could spot Matt in the audience? :) ... Congratulations!
I was looking! 👀
No!!! I was too!!!! Lol
Lol I did :)
Me too!
Was he in the audience wow fate is amazing.
Watching in 2024 ❤
💗
Darn, I love being black!!! Not hating any other people, just condoning the lies told of us on screen, radio, and books in order to hear and see the true us as revealed in this young lady's talent and our God's blessings bestowed upon us which are manifested when we run, jump, sing, dance or do poetry.
I dont know how I stumbled upon this woman's videos but I'm glad I did
amen me too
I listen and listen to this over and over again. When my flesh tests me, this helps so much. Thank you for your ministry.
It's been over 4 years since I first watched this. Still strikes hard.
Thank you Janette ikz for this piece.
I posted this on my FB, 6 years ago. It came up in my “memories” today. I had completely forgotten about it, but am so glad I posted it! Listening to this 6 years later, it has such a different meaning to me. I love it. Don’t ever take this video down. The message is SO important, vital to our souls. What was once for me, is now for my daughters. 😌💕💕
the most incredibly beautiful thing. "I won't need to identify you by any special Matthews or any special marks because his word will be tattered all over your heart"
WOOOW!!! Ladies, Gentlemen, if you are single or in the wrong relationship YOU GOTTA SEE THIS #iWait
It’s 2020 and I’m still in awe of this ♥️
2023 still relevant. Everytime I start to question my choices, I come back to this. And I remember exactly what I'm looking for, and I refuse to settle for less.
why does this remind me of my situation?! girl was speaking the truth omg.
I bumped into this, 3 months ago....a little later but it changed my life and I am waiting for him who will remind me of Solomons' wisdom and will go to Christ to find me. I wont settle for false companionship, deeeeeeep!
Yeeh
So, I bumped into this poem back in 2012 after watching Ready Or Not. #IWWFY was a yr or 2 old at the time. INSTANTLY I knew God had orchestrated it bcz Jeanette was all up & thru MY BIZNESS... & I didn't know how to feel abt it!
Chile, I LOATHE a good think-piece & before I could tell My Daddy that Jeanette was out here in these streets gossiping abt me, I found this on repeat. All day. EVERYDAY. No lie.
This WHOLE poem really became a daily prayer- recited it OUT LOUD with my WHOLE chest. Life IS IN the tongue, chile.
As the years would pass, I grew more discontent with my dating PATTERNS/HABITS: I dated men who I knew I would never marry. Once I realized this, I stopped, bitterly, but I stopped. I was more upset at the fact that I was BLINDLY settling, KNOWINGLY compromising & WASTING. MY. TIME. I was so tired of ME!
I ran across this poem again & instantly realized my Growth: the first portion didn't hit like it used to, but the last bit did! It was at the 6:42 mark that I realized that all I truly desired was to be at peace WITH THE GREATEST LOVE EVER KNOWN, My Father! (He never mishandled me, so why would I allow someone else to? He loves me unconditionally, so why would I accept anything less? My Father wants the best for me, So. Why. SHOULD. I. Accept. Anything. Less???!)
Chile, my 💚 was on fire! 🥰 I gained a DIFFERENT kind of appreciation for God in that season of my life.
It's March of 2022, & I'm a Wife now. My thought process is different now; my level of understanding is different- Hunni, MY LEVEL OF SELF WORTH IS IN A WHOLE DIFFERENT TAX BRACKET, if you will. Lol.
But seriously, I could sit, be narrow-minded & complain abt why it took so long for it to happen, but I'm not, simply bcz I'm grateful that it happened at the time it did: I needed to make room for it! Any sooner & I would've squandered it from the jump. I wasn't "ready" for the responsibility. There was some healing that needed to take place. And honestly, for me, it happened RIGHT ON TIME & when I least expected it... AND when it WAS happening, I was still clueless & in disbelief. Like, God, is this really happening? Like REALLY really happening...to ME?? 🤯 Lol.
& yes, some rumors are true: Marriage is challenging! It causes you to stretch & grow & change for the betterment. There's a lot of un-learning, learning, & re-learning to do... well that's been OUR Journey so far. But it's worth it! 🥰💕
I am so gracious to Abba. 🙌🏾💚
Jennette…Ikz😊 this is 2024 and I still remember this…please where are you?
Brilliant. Wow. God rewards faithfulness and patience. This sista is truly anointed. She just don't know how much she spoke to me. I be lead a life of singleness for 20 something years. I dated a bunch sorta kindas but tired of selling myself short because my patience and faith is here. I will wait ..
Being the oldest I get the pressure from family so yea 4:12
This video helps me when I notice myself wanting to be in a relationship
it's like a quick slap of "wake up get focused"!
Yes Same here Keep pressing sis!
Yessenia Escobar God will honour your trust; even if it's not what you/I/We expect, His timing is always perfect, as is His will!
Yessenia Escobar Yeeeeeeesss!!!!!! lol Couldn't have been said any better.
***** wow, amen
It's 2024 and this is still good and even more needed. God bless you first this timeless word.❤
Watching this after years. It literally gave me goosebumps
On this night you have been the physical representation of what
I have clearly heard God speak to me concerning my past and even my present. One of your poems you said some of us are not able to hear clearly until we come into contact with someone who has been there. Thank you for your walk with Christ.. Thank you for your voice. Thank you God Bless you.. I see my purpose again all the abuse and hurt dried the ink from my pen.. Now with Christ I can #create
Wow, she got me like, I'ma wait for you too.
2024, came back to watch this. Just the encouragement that I need.
It's 2022 and years after watching this, it still gives me chills. Gives me a reminder of why I am and should wait. #keepingthefaith
I TRIED TO TOLD Y'ALL
lololol
😂😂😂
Trinity Robertson I always say that whenever the video finishes lmbo i thought it was only me
😭😭😭😭😭😭
I say that way too often now 😂😂😂😂
I always come back to this when I need Inspiration and a blessing. I will wait for the man of God I know he has for me
Funny how this poem still hits in 2023. ❤ 💯
You woke me up thank you so much you have a voice that God gave you to blow for all of us to hear and maybe some can hear because you vibrate angels I think thank you
This summarised the reality of those who serve the King!💞
I used to remember that feeling of wanting something. Like, when I would see everyone around me in a relationship, and it feels like dry season. It doesn't feel right trying to get something on your own, and not being satisfied. It wasn't meant to be. I had realized in my relationship that I was myself in the whole time. I wasn't chasing anyone, though there were times when it came to that. I'm just thankful I didn't do anything stupid in hindsight.
2023 still here one of the best ❤ who still comes here???
I still watch this in 2022 because I am waiting for him
