Promises....

Oh boy, what a day what a day.  Things do have a weird way of working themselves out.  Today I expected one thing to happen and then the exact opposite occurred, but isn't that what I seem to have been saying these past few weeks?  Yep I believe even my post last night was titled "The Unexpected" and then whatta ya know, the very next day the unexpected happened.

It was not the thing I wanted to happen, and surly not the thing I thought was going to happen, but it did and I know that somewhere down the road, in the next couple days, the next week, or is may even be the next year, I will know why it didn't "work out" how I planned it, and I also know that the reason that it didn't will be better then why I thought it should have.

God has a funny way of showing up, He's never on time, but He's always right on time. Like when you think there is no possible way you can endure another second in your current situation and you know that any minute now God is just going to do something miraculous, but what happens when the minute turns into a decade or even twenty years?  How long are you willing to hold onto that promise, you know the promise from God that he gave you some odd years ago and you still have yet to see it come to pass.  Don't worry you will, the jews had to wait forty years for their promise land and maybe if they would have just listened the first time then it might not have taken them so long, but it did, partly because that may have been the way God wanted it, but partly because they let their unbelief seep in every time they became discouraged or disappointed.

If you let disappointment control you, you will be spending your lifetime waiting for missed promises that will never come to pass because you haven't learned the lesson behind them yet.  I cannot reiterate this enough people, please, please, please, make sure every time your going through a rough patch of life, STOP, THINK, PRAY and then REACT.  There is nothing harder than feeling like something was "suppose" to happen, and even thought with out a shadow of a doubt that it would....and then.....it doesn't, there is a slight form of panic that sweeps over you at first, then there is an anger and a frustration, and lastly(and this should really be firstly) you seek God for reasons why and come up with a whole list of questions to ask Him, and once you do all that, after the initial shock of the situation wears off, you began to forget about all the reasons why you wanted this thing to come to pass and ask the Lord what HE wants to come to pass.

It is that simple, we must seek first and then we will receive and answer, and it isn't always the answer we want to hear, but trust Him it's the best one.  I hope you all find the answers your seeking tonight and really get all the desires of your hearts fulfilled.  I bid you all a farewell and goodnight till tomorrow!

Warm Regards,
Candace
