Timing

Psalm 90:4
For a thousand years in Your sight are like yesterday when it passes by, or as a watch in the night.

I am a Christian and have lived in Knoxville, Tennessee for my entire life. Being raised in the South, I have been exposed to mass amounts of 'cultural Christianity'. In fact, the culture in the South is so inherently Christian that many non-Christians use Biblical phrases and terminology without ever knowing where it came from. What's worse is that Cultural Christianity has exposed us to Christian cliches to the extent that many of us view phrases such as 'God's timing is perfect' more as chicken soup for the pimple-on-prom-night's soul more than scripture.

What we should realize is that, when it comes to God's timing, we must have faith that it is perfect. I say that we must have faith because when you read verses like Psalm 90:4, you will realize that we will never comprehend the way that God sees things.

Today, perhaps we should pray that God cleanse us of our lukewarm habits, give us a passion for His Word, and that we would have the faith to truly believe that his timing is perfect.
