Scripture: Ephesians 1:10 "that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth - in Him."Observation: God has perfect timing. He accomplishes His will. His desire is to draw all things back to Him, through Christ.
Application: I have to be patient for His timing. With a long perspective of time we have a future of redemption and the return of Christ; for this I should be waiting in patient trust. In my everyday life I ought to look to God for His timing for all things physical and spiritual. It's my practical work of faith.
Prayer: Lord, the very fact that I call you 'Lord' is a reminder of who should be waiting on who. I need Your grace to have the faith to wait for Your will and Your timing. Please help me to leave the work to You with those around me. In my desire to do well as leader of my family I try so hard to control the development of my family, but that's not my place - it's Yours. Please forgive me and please help me to love them and to let You be God and Lord.
