There is a Season

“To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.” (Ecclesiastes 3:1) 

Let us learn to appreciate God’s divine sense of timing, so that we keep our peace by trusting and waiting on Him who knows the times and seasons. Waiting on the Lord is not a despondent, detached, or careless attitude that says, “Whatever will be, will be.” Remember, He sees purpose in things we might disdain and overlook, so we must ask Him daily for patience, perspective, and wisdom. May we always be expectant and faithful as we move forward knowing the Lord will do the right thing at the right time

 

"But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." (2 Peter 3:8)

 

We are sometimes upset and uneasy about the state of things and how long certain injustices and inequities may persist. But it is best to remember that Jesus is on the throne in heaven, and He has the world and everything in it in His hand.

 

God is sovereign, holy, and righteous, and He  knows what time it is. Trust Him and wait on Him!

 

Let's Pray - Father, teach me to redeem the time, and to understand the times and seasons. Let me be found waiting on You and trusting You through it all. In Jesus, Amen.
