“For a thousand years in Your sight are like yesterday when it is past, and like a watch in the night,” Psalm 90:4 (NKJV). Considering the words of the psalmist it becomes clear why it is so difficult to understand God’s timing on things. When a trial seems like an eternity to us, it is but a passing moment to Him. But both His actions and inactions are perfectly timed, and our panic does not change that. I must therefore learn to trust His perfect love and rest in Him. Zephaniah 3:17 (KJV) proclaims: “The LORD Thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; He will save, He will rest in His love, He will joy over thee with singing.” Wow! What a beautiful picture! LORD, by Your grace I will ditch my panic and worries. I will “give it a rest” and trust Your timing. I shall join the melody of Your song of joy over me and praise you with my whole heart. Selah!
“This is the day that the LORD has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!” Psalm 118:24 ESV. The table is set for a brand-new day. Only God knows exactly what is already prepared for my arrival in it. I must now leave behind days gone by and ready myself for new insight, a higher life, and greater things. Am I up for what today will bring? Only the day will tell, but the One who provides it will also carry me through it. One thing is sure; I will walk upon on sacred footprints since the Alpha and Omega has already trod this moment in advance, sprinkling blessings and divine opportunities throughout. I must pay attention so I don’t miss a thing He has placed along the path. Lord God, Lover of My Soul, today is the day You have made; I am so good with that and already rejoicing in what is to unfold. Lift me in Your arms and carry me through with faith, joy, and purpose.
