God's Time

Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Psalm 27:14

It seems like every year there are a million goals that we want to achieve. Whether it is receiving a good grade in a class, or a promotion at work, it is human nature to attempt to obtain everything that our hearts desire, even though it may not be in God's divine plan for our lives. When all of our desires are part of our personal agendas and not God's agenda, then life becomes more difficult. Getting an "A" on a term paper or a promotion at work may be even harder to obtain and life will feel as if everyone or everything is out to get you.

We need to remember that everything is perfect in God's time, and not ours. What you may think is your life's direction may not be the same as God's direction for your life. Don't forget to stop, think, and pray about what God may be calling you to do. Things are much easier if we realize and follow God's will, rather than our own.

Noël Winter

Prayer: Father, what is your will in my life today? Please help me to listen to your will and not mine, and give me patience to do so as I wait on your plan in my life. Amen.
