Trust God's perfect timing.



John 2:1–5

On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. When the wine was gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”

“Woman, why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”

His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”

Moving to a bigger city has made me impatient when I ship from Amazon. Now, a two-day delivery feels too long. I want it here on my time!

God has a plan for how he is working in our lives. Like Mary it can be hard to see. Do you ever feel like asking God, "Why isn't this on my time?"

But God's plan is always better than our own. At just the right time and in just the right place he sent Jesus to save us.

There's no better timing than that!

What is one promise from God's word you're patiently waiting for? What can his word remind you while you wait?

For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations. Read the context The Old Testament people worshiped in one place — the temple. That place was where encounter with God was. Do you know the way to encounter with God? The world will tell you to look inside yourself or out at nature...

John 10:14–15 “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep.

As well as he knows the Father. Jesus knows you by name. He knows your fears, doubts, and worries. And he knows how to comfort you. Trust the Good Shepherd....

Rev. 7:15–17 They are before the throne of Godand serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the thronewill shelter them with his presence. ‘Never again will they hunger;never again will they thirst.The sun will not beat down on them,’ nor any scorching heat.
