time
For 2 days I played the role of timekeeper. So I had a lot of time staring at the timer. The 1/10th of a second was travelling at an incredible speed which made me feel anxious. I wondered how much faster Time would be if we break it down even more. Not wanting to be stressed out by its sheer speed, I blocked out that part of the timer. Strangerly, time simply slowed down and so did my heartbeat.
It occurred to me how most of the time we think that time is crawling when we are waiting for God to scaffold the purpose of our lives. When is that answer going to come Lord? When will I know if he is your will for me Lord? Should I take that job Lord? Is that your will for me Lord? Won’t you tell me Lord? God’s timing is everything. God says, Wait. Be still. I am God. Or perhaps He really wants to tell us, my timer is like speeding away lor so it’s not slow what!
God sees time in terms of eternity (we on the other hand are obviously shortsighted), with time perhaps broken down beyond hundredths and thousandths of a second. It is perhaps not as slow to Him as to us when we are waiting for something to happen or for an answer. Because all things will happen right on cue and time.
Trust His timing. He makes all things beautiful in His time.
And He means it.
