HIS TIME NOT OURS

 
 
2 Peter 3:9
 
"The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."
NIV
 
"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." KJV
 


God is not confined to space and time. Neither does He move or act in our system of time. Unfortunately, we are confined to time and space. Because that's all we know, we expect Him to work and act within the boundary of our limits. Actually, God moves and acts from the unfolding of His eternal plan that gives you, me, and all who walk the earth, an opportunity to change our ways and commit our lives to Him. If we trust Him, how can we question the way He does things?


Heavenly Father, forgive us for expecting You to work things out in our time frames and in our ways. Help us to trust You and remember that You are working all things out for our good and Your glory. In Jesus' name, Amen.
