Everything that happens in this world happens at the time God chooses.
– Ecclesiastes 3:1
I don't know why either. But I trust God's timing.
Always pray to God - not to grant you your wishes, but to grant you the wisdom of what He wishes from you. And while you are at it, you might as well thank Him for all that He has already blessed you with.
Lord, may I always remember that Your promises are true & are eventually being fulfilled in me.
Genesis tells us that in the beginning, God created the heavens and earth. But before He spoke the world into existence, it was formless and empty. If God can make the world out of nothing, He can take the empty places in your life and create something beautiful, too!
Just because things didn't work out the way you wanted doesn't mean they didn't work out the way God planned. Be open to change.
Just say today, "I know God has a plan for my life. I know God will work out his master plan for me."
When we honestly seek God, He will reveal His Will through our thoughts and convictions.
And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don't work or make their clothing. (NLT) -Matthew 6:28
Get wisdom; develop good judgment. Don't forget my words or turn away from them. (NLT) -Proverbs 4:5
Look at the ravens. They don't plant or harvest or store food in barns, for God feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than any birds! (NLT) -Luke 12:24
Sometimes bad things happen to good people. But how do you make peace with this thought, especially when you are fighting back anger, hurt, betrayal, or loneliness? It's important to realize God has perfect timing, even when we can't understand it.
My friend, don’t be discouraged when people let you down. The disappointment of man might just be God’s divine appointment for your life.
Without placing your faith in His timing, you leave room for resentment, despair, and rebellion.
God has a purpose in our lives and everything happens for a reason. It's always to draw your heart closer to Him. Work on uncrossing your fingers and instead say a prayer. There's more power in purpose than random chance!
Make room in your life for God to provide purpose and direction.
