Just as we were getting ready to leave for a day at the beach, it started raining. Traveling down the road, the clouds were getting darker and menacing, but we kept going. Then we received a text, “You are going to the beach, it’s raining.” We had every excuse to turn around and go back home, but we continued on. And, we had a great day to be at the beach enjoying the sound of the waves and spending time together.
Life is not about waiting for the perfect time or circumstances. Life is to be lived now, not waiting for everything to line up in order because the perfect time might never come and things might never line up.
God’s timing is perfect and our timing is limited. We see the clouds; He sends the sunshine. We see the excuses; He sees the opportunities. We see the hinderances; He opens the doors.
Seek God’s will. If God says “Wait”, then wait. If God says “Go ahead”, then go ahead. If God says, “No” then don’t do it. If God says, “I have something better for you,” then wait patiently.
Just because the wind is blowing and the clouds look heavy is no reason to delay planting the seed or reaping the harvest. Never let excuses keep you from doing what God has called you to do.
Ecclesiastes 11:4 KJV “He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.”
