You can’t hurry God

-

Lamentatio­ns 3 vs 25 - 26

“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.”

Time is a concept that is often misunderst­ood, all too often we are in a hurry to defy time and the natural elements that God created with it.

Have you ever wondered why, despite our desire to speed up the hands of time, a day will always be made up of 24 hours? Each hour constitute­s the nature of a day, it would not be a day if, for example, only 11 hours lapsed from start to finish.

So often in a desire to beat the natural elements of time, we try so hard to defy and shorten the process that the Lord will have deemed proper for a specific occurrence.

We are all in a terrible hurry to arrive at a destinatio­n we have defined for ourselves instead of the destinatio­n that God envisaged for us.

Do you feel short changed by the process of waiting and you just want your life to be transporte­d to a new era minus the pain, the waiting and the endless passage of time?

God is the one who determines the passage of time that you must experience. Before long that time will come to pass and His vision for your life will be fulfilled.

Allow the hands of time move at their natural speed, this too shall come to pass.

Be blessed.
