Wisdom Time

 There is a right time for everything, and everything on earth will happen at the right time.  (Ecclesiastes 3:1 ERV)

 When God created the earth and everything in it, He did so in a sequence that made provision for the life and pleasure of humans that He created.  At just the right time everything was in place for human survival including a garden for humans to live in.  When we were made in the secret place of our mother’s womb God also had a plan for each of us.  He planned where we would be born and the place where we would live in the hope that we would search for Him and find Him. 

 God began by making one man, and from him he made all the different people who live everywhere in the world. He decided exactly when and where they would live. God wanted people to look for him, and perhaps in searching all around for him, they would find him. But he is not far from any of us.  (Acts 17:26-27 ERV)

 

Because we live in a sinful world we might have a hard time believing that God is good and that He truly desires that we live a pleasing and purposeful life.  Perhaps we drifted into addiction because we believed the circumstances and place of our birth were not favorable to us.  God is aware of who we are and of our circumstances. 

Perhaps He has brought us to this place at this time to seek Him and ask Him for wisdom to follow the path He has prepared for us.  There is a right time for everything on earth.  Maybe this is the right time for us to give our will and life over to the care of God who is not too far from us. 

 In the Scriptures God says, “When the time came, I listened to you, and when you needed help, I came to save you.” That time has come. This is the day for you to be saved.  (2 Corinthians 6:2 CEV)

 

Prayer:   Heavenly Father, Your wisdom is infinite and You say that this is the day for me to be saved.  Today, I choose to give my will and life over to Your care.  I truly believe that You will guide me to the pleasing and purposeful life You have planned for me.  Amen
