Listen, God and I are on different wavelengths when it comes to getting things done in my life. I need things to be done pronto and He seems to want to take His time. Doesn’t He know that in this day and age of electronic devices, high speed internet and social media, things are moving at a faster pace. Like what’s up with the wait? Geez.
Then I have to remind myself, in His time, in His time, in His time, sigh, in His time, in His time, in His time sigh. Ugh. My wants and needs matter to Him but my timeframe doesn’t matter to Him at all. He’s the boss. It’s His show. I can plan out a timeline for my life but it will only manifest if He wants it to.
Do you ever notice that you know what you’re supposed to do and you set out to do it but things keep getting in the way? And while those things get in your way . . . days, months, and years pass by as you maneuver around those obstacles. But while you’re dodging the orange cones, which seem to have been strategically placed in your way, you’re getting older, wiser, stronger, and more resilient than you’ve ever been.
Yep, that’s God. That’s how he rolls. He toughens you up, polishes your armour, and makes sure you glow so brightly that no one can dim your shine. And during those years while you’re jumping hurdles, He’s making sure your endurance improves and your skin thickens. And when your boot camp training is complete, He MAY bless your efforts with what you’ve been waiting on for so long. Or . . . He may send you down a different path. Who knows.
Yeah, His way or no way is what’s up. And it’s always better than my way or your way. Watch.
