Wait for the Lord; be strong and
take heart and wait for the Lord.
—Psalm 27:14
Best-selling author Sarah Breathnach said, “When I wrote Simple Abundance it was turned down 30 times before I got a publisher. Looking back, if it had been published earlier it never would have struck a chord, but later people were ready to listen to the message. Isn’t divine time amazing?”
Yes, it is Sarah. But it’s a hard lesson to learn.
The interval between prayer and its answer sometimes seems long.
Why doesn’t he answer?
He does, when the time is right. Until then, we must wait.
Dear God, give me faith and patience to wait until it pleases you to answer my prayer—for I believe you will do it in your own time and in your own way. Amen.
God is never late. He is always
right on time—his time.
