Leviticus 6-7:27; Mark 3:7-30; Psalm 37:1-11; Proverbs 10:3-4

Are you waiting for God to do something because of a vision, a dream, a prophecy, a hearts desire, or a prayer? Why does it seem so hard sometimes to trust God's timing! My grandmother always says, " The Lord may not come when you want Him, but He will be there right on time." I am so glad I serve an "on time" God.

We read today in Psalm 37:7 "Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him". Many times in life we find ourselves waiting, waiting on that vision, that dream or the desires of our heart to happen. God longs for you and me to come into that place where His will, plan and purpose are fullfilled in our lives. When we embrace the truth that it is an honor to wait on the Almighty God to direct our lives, waiting doesn't seem as hard.

As you go about your day, keeping your appointments, may I encourage you to keep the most important one; being still before the Lord. God always keeps his appointment with us in prayer. God cares about time, however, He is not bound by time. He is always available to talk with us and spend time with us. The Lord is never late. He's always on time. Determine in your heart this day that you will live out your God given assignment as you continue to offer to Him the fruit of your lips, giving thanks in the midst waiting and in all things. This is Gods will for all of us. Be encouraged! God may not come when you want Him, but He will be there right on time.

Let's pray
Father we long to be still before you. As we wait on you Lord, we stand on your promises and trust in your timing and direction for lives. Amen.
