Understand God's Timing?

Understand God's Timing?


 


 


Promises, Promises, we say and sigh.


Another disappointent - wonder why?


 


It seems to happen again and again.


It's more amd more common here among men.


 


What about God's promises even now?


Has He made them and then forgotten how?


 


Trusting is hard when it seems He's delayed.


Seems He's forgotten us and we're afraid.


 


Claim a promise - then I'm on HIS schedule.


It's what trust is about - that is the rule.


 


He remains faithful. His promise will stand.


He'll help me trust the timing of HIS hand.


 


WE are bound by time but our God is not.


It'll happen in His schedule on the dot!


 


Waiting and trusting is not what we like.


We like to say WHEN "it comes down the pike."


 


We show love by obedience and trust.


To grow as a disciple, it's a must.


 


So help me, Lord, to trust Your wisdom, love and power.
