Trust I Must

Posted by Cheryl on May 6, 2010 in Blog, Quotes | 2 comments

My Mac time capsule/wireless router overheated to an early death so I don’t know when I’ll be able to post this.  I don’t even know if I’ll get the device working again.

Lord, help.  All my written words transfer through that wireless connection!  I feel disconnected from the source.

I laugh at how computer-dependent I sound.  God is my only Source, and nothing out-powers our connection, not even mechanics.

I sigh because I still don’t know when I’ll be able to “send” this message; but I choose to rejoice (and feel the better for it), because I know Sovereign God says, “My timing is perfect. Trust me.”

Fast forward three days to today:  Although we’re past the warranty, Apple sent us a new improved Time Capsule at no charge.

What I failed to tell you before is the morning before it “checked out,” I’d felt strangely compelled to pray over it.  I prayed that God would give us many long years with it.

Was I temporarily disillusioned when my prayer came back in my face?  You bet.  However, looking back at it now, I see the Almighty’s hand all along.

Have your problems or setbacks ever switched around for good?  If not yet, give it time.  God, who sees the end from the beginning, is working for your good and His glory.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”  Romans 8:28
