In our hurry-up-and-go world it can be very frustrating when we can’t go faster and do more. We’ve been trained to expect things fast. No wonder we’re so impatient therefore we want to see results and Money Pouring in soon. We think “The Sooner the Better!!!!!!!!”
However, let’s face it: this “need for speed” has created plenty of problems in its wake.
So lets see what God wants to say to us through the many examples in the Bible:
1) The Bible is full of stories about the many years God took preparing people for some incredible tasks. Abraham and Sara were long past childbearing age when God’s promise of a son for them came about.
2) Joseph had to endure imprisonment before finding favor in Egypt, and then it was much later before his brothers traveled there looking for famine relief and eventually discovering the fate of the one they’d sold into slavery.
3) Moses tended sheep for forty years before his call to return to
Now these are just a few examples from the Old Testament.
Recall that Jesus started his ministry with forty days of fasting, prayer and temptation in the desert. That was after thirty years of non-public life. Clearly, God has reasons for His timing.
Now in our very own lives we think we’re stuck in dead-end internet jobs and we wonder if God is even listening., when we ask him to hurry up our results or show us an easy way…..
But let us all remember, its all in HIS TIME that things will work out, but that does not mean we sit around and wait without doing anything…..Read Articles about your businesses, Implement them, and I’am sure success will be yours.
So the next time you are stuck in a long line, or frustrated that your prayers have yet to be answered, try thanking God for your life and the opportunity to pause and appreciate it.
