TRUST IN GOD’S TIMING AND HIS PLANS

Everything in nature follows a fixed schedule: the trees blossom and bear fruit in season, the planets go round their orbits in clockwise precision, the moon waxes and wanes in perfect time… There is a flawless perfection in nature because nature never tries to alter the Creator’s perfect plan. Nature never grumbles. It is only man who grumbles, worries, gets impatient, spoils the plan of God and invites misery into his life. God knows what to give us and when to give it. One question comes to my mind – How do we trust God’s timing and His plans? Sometimes, it’s really very hard especially when we don’t get what we love and desire. God’s knowledge and wisdom are far, far greater than ours. When we question God’s timing and His plans we are trying to fix our plans and problems by ourselves. This may misfire as our understanding is limited and our knowledge imperfect. Just put your trust in the Lord, surely He will do what He has promised.

For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you,

plans to give you hope and a future. – Jeremiah 29:11

God has planned and decided everything. My dear friends we all know that the Lord knows us before we were formed in our mother’s womb. He loves us so much and each one of us is very precious in His eyes. God has no limits and restrictions. Be patient and wait for His timing and for His plans. Trust God’s timing, it always comes with the promise of hope, no matter what our circumstances. Just put your hope and trust in Him.

I strongly believe that, when God makes you wait He is going to give you something more valuable than you expected. Trust God, everything will work out in the right way at the right time. God always gives us what is best. So let us trust His timing and His plans.

HE HAS MADE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL IN ITS TIME. – Ecclesiastes 3:11
