Man, that stinks

In the previous article, we learned that perhaps we don't always have to "get it".  In fact, many times we won't "get it", at least at first, if we simply yield to God's plan for our lives.  That's particularly hard to do when we are faced with a major upheaval in our lives, only to be exacerbated by what normally involves waiting to see just what that plan is.  Man, that waiting stinks!

Unfortunately for us, or so we feel, God's clock isn't on the same time as the one we are so used to.  Our clock says such things as "right now", "not later", "hurry up", "I don't want to wait",  and the like.  God's clock says only one thing..."in my timing".  Man, that waiting stinks.

Why are we like that?  Do we like the stink?  What is it that stops us from just yielding and waiting for His will for our lives to play out?  We call ourselves Christians, and yet just how much disrespect, disobedience,  and lack of trust are we showing our God when we don't wait?  Now you want to talk about something that stinks!  Yes, we do....we're the stinkers.


Sometimes we just have to wait, it seems, for the proverbial "when the pigs fly" to see how it all plays out, just exactly what His will is for us.  One thing's for sure....He can make those pigs fly.


Bottom Line Thought:  Which clock do you look at the most....your clock or Gods?
