GOD'S TIMING

So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and in his good time he will honor you. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about what happens to you. Be careful! Watch out for attacks from the Devil, your great enemy. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for some victim to devour. Take a firm stand against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your Christian brothers and sisters all over the world are going through the same kind of suffering you are. In his kindness God called you to his eternal glory by means of Jesus Christ. After you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support, and strengthen you, and he will place you on a firm foundation. All power is his forever and ever. Amen.

When the storm passes over and the power is interrupted, we have to go through the house and reset all those digital clocks. I always find it a challenge to get them all set right. While I struggle with this tiny issue of time, the sovereign Father has control of all time.
 
When the storms of life come, I can put my faith in God and not worry. I can depend on “the mighty power of God” to carry me through the storm. I can trust that the storm will not last one moment longer than is necessary for God to work out His divine plan.
 
“… in His good time…”
 
“After you have suffered a little while…”
 
“In His kindness…” God will set every thing right. When God resets things, it is all right because He is good.
