On time 2

Isn't it amazing how we always want
people to be on time when we need them for something
but we are never on time when it comes to God's work.
We drive miles during winter in the stormy weather
to get to our place of work
but we choose to sit home on sunday
and say stuffs like "did you see the snow outside
it's as high as mount everest!"
Isn't it amazing how we always want God to answer us on time
but the last thing we do is call him.
When he lets us sleep, wake and go about our day without
problems; we forget to thank him. We then run to him
when we're facing problems
and then we complain that he's not on time.

You read the previous post and your first reaction was
disappointment. For some, it was anger.
Do you know that you are DEE?
You are the one that never shows up at the
most important time.
The important meeting
was the solution to your problem
and you were nowhere to be found.
Have you thought about this?
You've been facing a particular problem repeatedly
and you have prayed over it.
God finally decided to pave way for you
through the sermon for the day
and guess what? You were late!
You never even showed up!
Pastor already skipped the solution
before you stepped into the church...
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
Be on time for God
so he can be on time for you.
Thank him on time
so he can help you on time.
Call on him on time
so he can answer your prayers on time
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
Bear in mind that his ways are not our ways. When you pray repeatedly over an issue and you do not see a solution; God is not ignoring you. He is a God of amazement. He is waiting for the perfect time to not only surprise you, but shock those around you. Don't rush him into giving you a beetle when he has a bentley in stock for you.

How we often take so much for granted and are quick to 'blame God' for our problems.

Thanks for the post. A deeply thoughtful reminder.
