Hey guys,

I found this in my inbox today and decided to share it with you all.

Still standing for my wife and with all of you for your spouses,

Ronnie.

God Is Never Late Nor Tardy!!

Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine

heart: wait, I say, on the LORD – Psalm 27:14

While most of you await healing and restoration, one of your greatest

fears is fear of tomorrow. If we place our confidence in God's power

we have nothing to fear. God has given us His Word that He will take

care of our tomorrows if we simply put our trust in Him.

The reason that we, many times do not see or feel the Lord is that we

are not waiting on the Lord. We are still on our own timetable and we

are still running ahead of God and hoping He will catch up to our

plans. But that is not how God works. He doesn't change just because

we are anxious and He does not hurry just because we are impatient.

My friend, I do not doubt that your trial is real, that your burden

is heavy, or that your discouragement is deep. But put your eyes upon

this promise. When we wait courageously on the Lord, He will

strengthen our hearts. God is never late and He is never tardy.

Many may be asking, "When will God come through for me?" Wait on the

Lord. "When will this ciscumstance end?" Wait on the Lord. "How can I

survive this ordeal?" Wait on the Lord. "How will the Lord make this

crooked path straight?" Wait on the Lord. Wait, I say, on the Lord.

If we want God's plan for our future to manifest itself, we cannot

worry in the present. Many times we try to put a date on healing and

restoration; advising God to heal and restore on such and such date.

We need not be anxious. We need to trust God to do this in His

perfect timing.

It seems the more we try to "set" a time for God to respond, the less

He does. Allowing God to move in His timing takes total obedience and

submission on our part. We cannot control God. God rescues, delivers,

heals, restores and moves, in His timing. God has a set time. He

knows from the beginning what the end is going to be.

The Bible teaches us that we are going to suffer in many different

ways. And when we suffer, let us remember these three important

principles: (a) If we are faithful, God is present, even when He

seems far away; (b) God's timing is perfect, even when He appears

late; and © During our times of suffering, the most important thing

to do is keep our faith and trust in God.

God is always on time, He is never late.
 
That was awesome!!!! It really helped me!!

Thank you

In Jesus name,

Amen
