Timing

Little One,
Be Patient. I will bring to pass all I have promised. What now seems to you a needless delay -- even a backward move -- is actually an important step in the necessary process. Child, the pains of healing are similar to the pains of the earlier difficulty, but with one significant difference: they are the result of the steady flow of My Life which is, even now, reversing the damages you have asked Me to mend.
Keep your eyes on Me, for I know an important principle you have forgotten. Often what is quickly acquired is also quickly lost. Therefore, rest! I AM laying a solid foundation which cannot be moved.
Faithfully, Dad
(today's reading: From The Father's Heart by Charles Slagle)

[You shall not be in dread of them, for the Lord your God is in your midst, a great and awesome God. The Lord your God will clear away these nations before you little by little. You may not make an end of them at once, lest the wild beasts grow too numerous for you. But the Lord your God will give them over to you and throw them into great confusion, until they are destroyed]

It's weird how timing works out. How you can forget to read your daily bible or a devo and when you get a chance to pick it up it has whole new meaning then it would have before.

I trust you Lord. And I would go to the ends of the earth for You. You give me a time and a place and I'll be there. Nothing is holding me down, no stings, no rope, no chain. It's You and me. Again. Just the two of Us.
