Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. -Rousseau
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. Psalm 46:10
God works slowly and patiently to get what He wants done. He is not in a rush. He is not in a panic. He set David in the wilderness for 40 years before leading the Children out of Egypt. He let Jesus grow for 33-1/2 years before He got on the Cross. What God could have done with just a few Words, He took His time.
What does this say to me? Don’t rush God... He is working in His own time! Some of God’s most valued parts of creation have been around a long time! A diamond, a Red Wood Tree, an Olive Tree, the Grand Canyon... Are you trying to rush something God is attempting to do in and through your life? Be still! Acknowledge He is God! Let Him have His way with your life!
