"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. (Isaiah 55:8)
"Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act." (Psalm 37:7)
God is in no hurry. We tend to think that if God is really engaged, He will change things within the next hour or so. Certainly by sundown. Absolutely by the end of the week. But God is not a slave to the human clock. Compared to the works of mankind, He is extremely deliberate and painfully slow. As religion poet George Herbert wisely penned, “God’s mill grinds slow, but sure.”
