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?

Acts 3:13–15 The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus. You handed him over to be killed, and you disowned him before Pilate, though he had decided to let him go. You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you. You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this. Read the context God's fingerprints were present throughout history: He spoke to the patriarchs — Abraham,...

Deut.18:17–19 The Lord said to me: “What they say is good. I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites, and I will put my words in his mouth.

Read the context When God wanted to speak to his people, Moses was his mouthpiece. But even the great prophet was a mortal and a sinner. Another prophet was promised. In...
