Timing Matters

“God doesn’t always answer our prayers according to our timeline. Yes, sometimes prayers are answered instantaneously, but often the answer takes far longer than we’d like. And sometimes, the answers just aren’t what we’d expected or hoped.

God’s timing matters. His reasons for when and how He answers our prayers may be beyond our ability to see at the moment, but that’s because He sees the bigger picture. We can only live in this present moment, but God is omnipresent, living eternally in each and every moment. He sees how all the many pieces fit together, and He is working all these things together for your good.

Find rest in God’s timing. Know that it may not be what you want, and you may have to lay down your own desires, but God is working for your eternal good. He is trustworthy. Rest in the belief that His perfect answer is coming, in His perfect time…” (Rest)
