God Will Make It Happen

The smallest family will become a thousand people,
    and the tiniest group will become a mighty nation.
    At the right time, I, the Lord, will make it happen.

Isaiah 60:22 

 

Ever wish God would go ahead and fill you in on His plans for you?  There are times when I do, partly because I can be impatient and partly because I just want to know what to expect.  Then I was asked a question: "Would you want God to tell you not only WHEN you will die but HOW you will die and HOW LONG it will take?"Honestly, THAT is one surprise I would rather encounter when it arrives. 

 

We are bombarded with messages every day telling us to "Just Do It" and "Believe In Yourself" and "YOU Can Do It."  Yet when I think about it, any time I have tried to go my own way and do my own thing because I believed in my and my "skills" to make it happen, disappointment followed, then depression set in, and the dark times came.  But when I am patient (which is a struggle) and let God do HIS job (which can be a test of patience), God makes His plans happen just at the right time EVERY time!
