AT JUST THE RIGHT TIME
Today's reading: Isaiah 20-23, 2 Corinthians 6, Psalm 147:12-20
"For God says, At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you." 2 Corinthians 6:2 NLT
I'm reading a book by Jen Wilkin about the attributes of God.
The characteristic I'm stymied by...stumped by...stopped in my tracks by...is that God is eternal.
Not something I can wrap my human mind around.
I exist in frames and dimensions of minutes, days, months and years...He does not.
So when it says in His Word that 'at just the right time, I heard you', I have to consider that that 'right time' probably does not correlate with the 'right time' I have written down in my planner.
I think Solomon wrote it best, 'He has made everything beautiful in its time.' (Ecclesiastes 3:11) It doesn't state, in any version I have found--and I have surely looked at several--'He has made everything beautiful in my time.'
So, let's trust Him, friends.
To have heard us.
To save us.
To know the perfect time for both!
