God's Perfect timing

Habakkuk 2:3 For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.

God gives us hopes and dreams for certain things to happen in our lives, but He doesn't always allow us to see the exact timing of His plan.
Although frustrating, not knowing the exact timing is often what keeps us saying...
When God When?
How long?
Yes...there are times when we might give up if we knew how long it was going to take, but can learn to live in hope.. when we accept God's timing, we can enjoy our lives while God is working on our problems. Knowing that God has promised good, just need to entrust our self to Him, to experience total peace and happiness....
Reminds me of Exodus 13:17,18 which tells us that God led the Israelites the longer, harder way on their journey to the Promised Land because He knew they were not yet ready to go in. There had to be time for their training, and they had to go through some very trying situations. They wasted a lot of time wondering about God's timing, but God never failed to take care of them and show them what He wanted them to do.
The same is true in our lives.
God's training/testing period simply requires us to do what He tells us to do when He tells us to do it......and I'm learning to accept God's timing.....
Thank You Lord !!
Reminds me of this song, which gives strength and hope,
IN HIS TIME, IN HIS TIME
HE MAKES ALL THINGS BEAUTIFUL IN HIS TIME
LORD, PLEASE SHOW ME EVERYDAY
AS YOU'RE TEACHING ME YOUR WAY
AND I'LL DO JUST WHAT YOU SAY
IN YOUR TIME.

IN YOUR TIME, IN YOUR TIME
YOU MAKE ALL THINGS BEAUTIFUL IN YOUR TIME
LORD, MY LIFE TO YOU I BRING
MAY EACH SONG I HAVE TO SING
BE TO YOU A LOVELY THING
IN YOUR TIME

BE TO YOU A LOVELY THING
IN YOUR TIME.
