Morning Devotional:
Four times! That’s how many times I got out of my car and went back into my house to either grab something I forgot or turn something off before I pulled out of my driveway to get to work the other morning. If it wasn’t grabbing my lunch out of my refrigerator or my watch out of the bedroom, it was turning the lights off in the garage or the living room. I ended up getting to work a few minutes late, and that’s essentially how the whole day went. I was running late for pretty much everything.
Running late for something is a very human experience, and while we may be rushing around and forgetting things, God never will. In our limited view, it’s easy to wonder why He doesn’t seem to show up when we want Him to, or why some prayers go unanswered for so long. But Scripture reminds us that God’s timing is not ours. We operate in minutes and hours, but God moves through eternity. He’s never late, and His timing is always perfect.
Second Peter 3:9 tells us that God is not slow, as we often perceive slowness. Every moment of waiting, every unanswered question, and even every frustrating delay has a purpose in His plan. He sees the full picture and knows exactly when to move. When you’re caught up in the rush of life or feel frustrated by a detour or delay, God is working in every single moment and He is faithful.
