God's Timing

 

There really is something to be said about God's timing. We constantly feel that it is never going to come, maybe never happen and we start to lose faith. Why not now, why not us? If you are like me I am constantly entering sweepstakes about every month. For many years I found myself constantly praying day and night to be chosen to win a dream house, lottery, or a dream vacation. I didn't notice but each time I didn't win I found myself slowly getting a little envious and bitter towards the winners. These were strangers and I was already not happy for them just because it didn't turn out my way. Who said I deserved to win in the first place? Who said I needed this more than them. I believed just because I prayed whole heartedly that God would make me a winner, but who is to say those people didn't pray harder or more deserving than my bitter heart. It really hit me one day when the new winner of the Hgtv dream house went to a older couple who already owned a home, were retired and well off in their financies that lead me to say "wow they're life is already set and met, they're so old and I'm so young I have my whole life ahead of me". Yes take a moment to let that sink in...I sure did. I felt awful the moment I said those words out loud. I felt God speak to me he said " How could I bless you with giving and kindness when you fail to be happy for your brother and sister, or when you do not pray for them as you pray for yourself". I was left speechless and in shame. I took time to pray and read my Bible trying to make peace within myself. I realized it wasn't that I didn't want others to recieve God's blessings, it was that I felt that I hadn't seen God's blessings in my own life for some time. My husband was struggling with hours at his job, we were climbing higher into debt and we felt a time clock on buying our first home. Little did I see God's blessings were all around me. Starting with the husband I have who never took our financial struggle out on me and his unchanging love for me. Then for our son who is kind-hearted, smart and ambitious. For the Health he has has given my family and most of all for the place we call home. We have everything we need and more, my husband and son say "we are rich in love". My six year old son grasped it more than I could. We always have enough to live and travel once or twice a year. God has provided every time. I started to think maybe God hasn't answered my prayer because of my heart. My selfish heart was blocking any further blessing God may have for me. I was too blind to see I already was overly blessed. I learned to trust God's timing and not mine. I learned to trust his ways and plans for my life. I know we all can get caught up on what isn't happening for us and how hard things may be, but trust God's timing. Trust that he is doing things you can not see. Put your worry and fears aside and let go of envy from your heart. What does not happen for us will create a path of what will happen for us. Every no is a yes in another part of our lives. Be blessed to be a blessing in life.
