God's Time

 



 

Well the past week has been rather uneventful for me, rather nice though when it seems like there Patience in our waiting is perhaps the greatest test of all. We are more than ready to bring home our child and begin the final stages of the adoption process, but as a Christian we have to remember that God has a plan. We have come this far on this journey and surely God will bring our child soon.is always something for me to be doing. We are still just waiting on our baby to find us and I can't seem to think of any way to expedite the process, but I am trying to remember that prayers aren't always answered in our time, but in God's time.

What helps me most in these moments are quotes and verses that speak truthfully and reassuringly.

For Patience:  

Psalm 37:7-9

 ⁷ Be still before the LORD
and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when people succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.

⁸ Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret—it leads only to evil.
⁹ For those who are evil will be destroyed,
but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.

For God's Time:

John 7:6

⁶ Therefore Jesus told them, “My time is not yet here; for you any time will do."

Finding Peace while you wait:

Philippians 4:6-7

 ⁶ Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. ⁷ Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
