When I say I will accept things “in God’s timing”…I need to REALLY mean it. I thought I really meant it… What I’ve realized today is that even though I’ve said and prayed that, in the back of my mind I’ve been thinking…”I want things in God’s timing…as long as He waits until I think I’m ready”. Well, that’s not really God’s timing is it? Nope. It’s still my own. If you’re going to pray and believe that your life will unfold exactly as the Father has planned, then be ready for things to shake up your world…and not be or look like what you thought they would. And TRUST that the Lord really does know what He’s doing…because He sure knows better than you or me EVER will!
Psalm 143:8
Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.
Ephesians 1:11
In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will
Thank you Jesus for knowing what I need before I can ever comprehend!

Hey Jessica! I think that I have a pretty good idea of what you’re talking about from talking to Sheree:) But this is so very true for everything. I mean, most of the time we say God I want this done right now or in a little bit and we don’t say “God I want you to do this in your timing,” like we should. I know for me that this is pretty difficult because I always seem to be saying “God can you do this…like right now?” When really what I should do is present my request to God and let Him handle the details. Love you Jess and I can’t wait to see you soon:) Have an awsome day!!!
