Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.-Ecclesiastes 3:11
Why is it so hard to trust him? I read this verse today and I pondered that question. Trusting him is something I struggle with on a daily basis. God has recently revealed to me my impatience. I sometimes forget how small I am and how big God is. I am so inferior to the Creator of heaven and earth. I know I don't have the answers. Only He can see the big picture that I can't.
My prayer is that he would give us all the peace Paul talks about in Philippians. That peace that transcends all understanding and guards our hearts and minds. We can't let satan fill our thoughts with worry and fear about the future.
God continues to remind me that the circumstances in which I have waited on him the most in my life are the times that I have been made more faithful.
Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.- Psalm 27:14
Jesus, thank you for doing things in your time rather than my own. Give me a peace about my future and continue to make me faithful in my waiting.
