[Manna - January 4]
Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord. Psalm 27:14
TIME is an important element in all God's plans:
we are not, therefore, to be disappointed when the
test of endurance is applied while the blessings we
crave tarry long.
God took time to frame the world
and to fit it for human habitation; time to give the
world its necessary experience with evil; time to prepare
for the advent of Christ as the world's Redeemer;
time for the preparation of the Church to
share in His glorious reign; and time must be allowed
for the shaping and adjusting of the individual affairs
of His people.
God has not forgotten when the
answers to our prayers seem to tarry long.
He who
heeds the sparrow's fall and numbers the very hairs
of our heads is not indifferent to the faintest call or
the smallest necessity of His humblest child. Z.'95-20 R1760:1
