The Wait of Weight

“How long, O LORD?” (Psalm 13:1)

         This question is the one that has always vexed humanity.  When we pray, we desire immediate response from God.  When we see evil, we seek immediate justice from God.  When we are under duress, we plead for immediate relief.  Yet, God lives by His clock, not ours.

         God time is different than man time.  God’s perspective upon waiting is different than ours, and His patience can frustrate us when we long for instant reaction from Him.  Yet, I love His longsuffering with me, and I suspect, you love His patience with you, too.

         By faith we wait for God’s timing to play out in our lives, in our country, and in our generation.  ‘In His time’ is another way of saying ‘at the right time’.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites
