But these things I plan won’t happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, do not despair, for these things will surely come to pass. Just be patient! They will not be overdue a single day! Habakkuk 2:3 TLB

It can be difficult to deal in the timing of NOW and be held in the worry of WHEN. But God gives us COURAGE when we need to be patient and learn from Him. He grows our FAITH so we will stop wasting time in fear. He helps us persevere as we walk with Jesus and carry the STRENGTH of His LOVE.      

Impatience will cause us to think God isn't working for the good. But He IS working; preparing us to understand the power of His plan. He knows what will happen next and longs for us to remain faithful to remember His timing is not our own.

God knows the desires of our hearts. As we pray in Jesus’ name, we begin to understand we don't have to sit in the darkness of doubt or believe a delay is punishment. When the time is right, God will reveal His will as we cling to His promise and put our HOPE in Him.  

God will bless us in mighty ways. He will guard our hearts and allow us to recognize rewards from His faithfulness will ALWAYS be worth the WAIT! God WILL do what we cannot to bring fulfillment to our lives. He will be honored when we allow Him to grow our patience and never forget His timing is PERFECT. 

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.” Romans 8:28 

Dear God, thank you for waking us for ALL You provide. You are deserving of PRAISE! Forgive us when we become impatient. Fill us with courage and strength as You grow our TRUST. We will faithfully honor You with a willingness to learn valuable lessons while we WAIT to witness what will happen next. Help us surrender doubt and make room to welcome PEACE. Thank you for preparing us for what’s to come. May we be gratefully faithful as you ready us to welcome Your timely rewards. Thank you for answering our prayers when You are ready. Thank you, Lord. Thank you! Amen
