About This Quote

Sometimes we feel the need to do something fast. We want things to happen now, but God doesn’t work that way. He has his own schedule and timetable for everything, and if we try to hurry things along, it will only make everything worse. God is always in control, He has his reasons for doing what he does, and even if we knew for sure why he did something, it would be like trying to put your finger on the wind or measure how tall you are. We can’t really know why God does anything; the only thing we can do is trust him completely.
