If I have learned anything from my personal experiences, it is that God uses everything – good and bad, ugly and pretty, common and extraordinary – to move us to the place He wants us to be. Most of the time, God doesn’t tell us what’s going to happen. Why? Because we’ll get so caught up in THAT that we’ll miss THIS.
We usually experience a waiting period when God tells us something, and in the stretch between His speaking and doing – the meantime – He performs an intervention. We are confronted with His love, asked to make a choice: be active and fight for the promise, or continue on our current path. We must choose.
What you do in the meantime is important. God hasn’t changed His mind – what He says He will do. But, your belief and behavior in the meantime will have an impact on your ability to receive.
The meantime isn’t for God – it’s for us.
God is outside of time. He has no beginning, and no end. That means he has no yesterday and no tomorrow. He just is. So for God, tomorrow is the same as today, same as yesterday. Was God in control yesterday? Undoubtedly, yes. Is God in control today? You know He is. Then He's in control tomorrow too. Time is not an issue for Him. He's already present in tomorrow. So no matter what happens, trust God.
I'm genuinely thankful. God has allowed me to see His faithfulness through enough yesterdays to realize that He will be faithful in today, and that I don't have to worry about tomorrow. I give it over to God.
Blessings,
Dalinda
