![]() It is tempting to question God’s timing when it does not align with my own. ![]() But he does know it and has planned for it. I do not believe that he causes all that happens. He has known me from the creation, and everything that I will think, say, and do. God Has a PlanĪnother thing to consider is that God is not reactive to the events in our lives and the world around us. He has all of the information necessary in order to make appropriate decisions at the appropriate time. And why others act in such foolish and arrogant ways. He knows exactly why wars and conflicts start. He knows each of us better than we know ourselves. Much less how to fix its problems.īut God does not have those limits. When it gets down to it, I do not have nearly enough information to know why the world is the way it is. I do not know myself nearly as well as I think I do. And even more so concerning the why of those events. And I have come to learn that instant gratification is not always the best gratification.īut the reality is that I am ignorant about much of what is happening. I can be much more patient about the future. After all, two years is only three percent of my life. Waiting a few years for something is no longer that hard to grasp. Next Christmas was so far away as to be meaningless.īut now, at 68 years old, I have a longer view of time. A year into the future seemed like an eternity away. I did not really understand having to wait very long for something. At six years old, I only had a couple of years that I could remember.Īnd that dramatically impacted my concept of time. I can recall, as a young child, having a very limited perspective on time. One thing to bear in mind when we are considering God’s timing is that his view of time is much greater than ours. And how we should respond when it seems God is responding too slowly. This article will look at why God’s timing is not ours. ![]() Those times when God’s timing does not seem to line up with our own timing. I suspect most of us have struggled with questions like these at some point in our lives. Have you ever been frustrated because your life seemed to be on hold? That things are not working out in your life according to your schedule? Or that God really needed to step into something that is happening and fix it? ![]()
