Greetings, Precious Family:
May the Peace of the Lord be with you.
Family, I always believe that the timing of God is perfect. The only time His timing seems “off” is when we get in the way. Shocker, right? 😄
Somehow, we’ve become experts at stepping into God’s lane and trying to take control. But what is it that drives us to do that? Why do we rush ahead of the One who sees all, knows all, and created all?
Whenever I start to pout, question, or blame God, I’m reminded of one of the most powerful moments in Scripture—when God responds to Job in Job 38.
In that chapter, God asks Job a series of questions—questions about creation, the earth’s foundations, the seas, the stars, the light, and the deep mysteries of the universe. Twenty‑five questions (and more) that no human being can answer.
Questions like:
“Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?”
“Have you ever commanded the morning?”
“Can you bind the chains of the Pleiades?”
Every time I read these questions, I realize something humbling:
I still cannot answer even ONE of them.
And if I can’t answer those questions…
If I can’t explain how God holds the universe together…
Then why am I trying to take the steering wheel of my own life?
So I go back to trusting His direction.
I return to His Word.
I spend intimate time in worship.
And I remind myself:
✨ God’s timing isn’t just perfect—it’s purposeful.
✨ He sees what we don’t.
✨ He controls what we can’t.
✨ He loves us more than we understand.
When we step aside and let Him lead, peace returns. And like Job, we are brought back to awe and surrender—not because God scolds us, but because He reminds us who He is.
Scripture Passage of the Day
Job 38
Prayer of the Day
Spirit of the Living God, thank You for Your perfect timing. Help me step out of the way and trust You fully. When I’m tempted to control, question, or rush ahead, or even in times when I am afraid to move, please remind me of the questions You asked your servant Job so that I will always remember that You are God and I am not. Lead me as I study Your Word and worship You intimately. It is in the name of Christ that I lift this prayer to you. Lord in your mercy, hear my prayer.
And I let it be…And so it is…
Amen, Amen, and Amen
