There is a time and a season for everything under the sun.

It seems that I never fail to try and take control of my own life but God is so patient and brings me back to Him and reminds me that I am trying to do it with my own strength.

God has been teaching me patience to quietly wait upon Him and His timing, for there is a time for everything under the sun. I often try to get ahead of myself. God faithfully reminded me of Abraham and Sarah and their time of waiting for the long awaited fullfillment of the promise and the birth of Isaac. The incredible faith of Abraham. He waited 99 years until the promise of the birth of a child was fullfilled. Wow, it amazes me and brings things into perspective.

God is good, and will continue to work in and through me, in His timing. It gives me such confidence knowing that God is in control of my life b/c his perspective outweighs my human perspective. Rather his is an above the sun perspective. God is so patient with me and He is so good, all the time!!
