Ecclesiastes 3:1 · Psalm 31:15

For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven: My times are in your hand. Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me.

Reflection

Think of sitting in a car on the highway when the road is full of red lights. The screen says you must wait forty minutes. You cannot skip to the exit, and you cannot stop the clock. Time does not take requests. Heavy rain comes, and you cannot vote it away. Holidays arrive whether you feel ready or not. In the same way, we cannot force our lives to move faster than God plans. The Bible says there is an appointed season and a right time for every matter under heaven. God holds the big chapters and the small seconds.

Theology

The Hope

Time is not a wild machine without a driver; your times are held in God's hands.

Daily life

The Heart

We often grow angry and impatient when we must wait for our plans to happen.

Prayer

Dear God, forgive me for fighting the clock and trying to run my own calendar. Teach me to rest and trust that You rule over every season of my life. Amen.
