"Be Satisfied...In God's Timing"

by Sarah Bowling

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

How would you describe this “season” in your life? Are you feeling restless because ”things” are progressing too slowly…or too quickly?

Be encouraged! In Matthew 6:34, Jesus tells us not to worry about tomorrow. Worrying certainly won’t change God’s timeline—and it won’t “help” Him do what’s best for us.

Perhaps you yearn to be married…hope for a career promotion…or desire a loved one to come to Christ. Be patient! God has a divine timing and purpose for all things. He is intimately aware of your desires and acquainted with each season of your life. He knows exactly what you need, and when you need it. God has a PERFECT plan for your future in mind…and He is always right on time.

Be prayerful! When you feel impatient or panicky…or God’s answer seems too late or too early…align your calendar with God’s schedule. Ask Him to reveal His will for you. Look for evidence that His divine timetable is working in your life and adjust your viewpoint to line up with God’s.

Dear heavenly Father, thank You for helping us to rest in Your Word and trust Your wisdom rather than our own agendas. Give us grace to be patient and accept the timing of Your perfect plan, in Jesus’ name, amen
