In His Own Time

I am always amazed at how things work out. Sometimes, well, lots of times, it is nowhere near the way I think I want it to happen. Money is a problem; bills are a problem. I’ve prayed for funds. Well, the funds do not always appear as “funds.”

This past few days, instead of “funds,” I’ve received, instead, wonderful arrangements to pay in a manner that might work out okay for me.

In a way, that is better than cash because the arrangements extend for a while down the line.

If I had received cash, I would have paid per the current arrangement and I would still be obligated in the current manner for months to come.

With the new arrangements, my obligations have lessened, as far as the amount per month is concerned.

When I thought of it that way, the Lord did better by me than if he had provided cash at the moment I begged for it.

Father, thank you for continuing to teach me about your timing and how it is far better than my timing.
