In The Fullness of Time


I trust you all had a great week and looking forward to a well-earned restful weekend. Please do not feel guilty to sit and put your feet up for a couple hours and read a couple chapters from a book. Housework is never done, so guess what it will still be there waiting for you.

By this time you should have all received the prayer calendars and are continuing to   pray for our children. I truly believe that our prayers are making a difference and children in the Caribbean and in the continent of Africa can attest to that. These are children we may never meet, but who may be the beneficiary of our prayers.

Here is a phrase that I would like you to think on over the upcoming days In the fullness of time” Let us remind ourselves that God will come through for us always at the right time.  Some of us have a habit of turning up late to events, whether it is church, dinner, work or a date. On the other hand a small number of us have a habit of always turning up early. As I think about this I realize That God also has a habit of how he does things. He never seems to be in a hurry to do things for us too early, and He never drags His feet and get to us late, instead He seems to just get to us right on time, His time that is. Some of us have been waiting on some “stuff” to come through for us for years and cannot see any sign of it as yet. Some of us are still waiting to see our dreams come to fruition, to see family members saved, to see our children doing the right thing, for a good job, a husband, a car, our own home but nothing seem to be moving. We look around us and it would appear that everyone else is being blessed except us and we start to get anxious or doubt God’s ability to do these things for us that we are praying about.  Well God’s timing never coincides with ours, but HOLD ON because He will not even be a minute late.  Habakkuk 2:3 tell us this For the vision [is] yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

So let us pray that we exhibit the fruit of patience and keep our eyes focused on the prize.

In His Service,

Vilma
