~ In His Time ~

'A watched pot never boils'
'As slow as molasses'
'Patience is a virtue'
'In His Time'

So, we put the new roof on, and, the deal for our house still fell through ........

Hey, no one warned me that selling a house can put one in the looney home :) ........

Of course, now we have missed a large portion of the most active selling season ........

And, I found the house I want ~ just sitting, waiting for us to move in ........

However, our house is back on the market, and, we believe we should sell before we buy ........

Yow, I am up again at 300 a.m, tossing and turning about the how's, where's, and when's we will move ........

Wow, in His amazing ways, my Lord keeps speaking to me to "Be still and wait on Him" and "In His time this whole story will fall into place just as He planned"

When I was in college, my dear roomie and I had 2 goldfish ~ Rocky and Rambo (What can I say, we thought Sylvester Stallone was handsome enough to have namesakes). As our sophomore days passed, we both found ourselves waiting on Him to work in situations that needed some miracles. So, we added a third fish, In His Time.

These 3 fish were the subject of many conversations ~ "Rocky, Rambo, and, In His Time" :)

On break, I got to be the 'keeper of the fish' ~ and, I think I failed...... Because I returned to school only with In His Time ~ Rocky and Rambo were not tough enough to survive the over-feeding by a friend who I thought was handsome enough to star as Rocky or Rambo, and I did not have the heart to clean the bowl out after he fed the fish :)

Why share this you ask?

Well, as I woke-up, wide awake and in a complete panic about this house stuff, in my Savior's beautiful, and sometimes humorous way, He reminded me that 20 years ago In His Time survived Rocky and Rambo. His namesake outlasted the human namesake. His ways are so much stronger and enduring than our ways. In His Time is the way to go if I want the path to be secure and eternal.

Guess I will go back to bed, singing myself to sleep with the beautiful chorus below, and trust in His way and In His time to be the most prevailing and powerful ~ even more than Rocky and Rambo!

In His Time
In His time, in His time.
He makes all things beautiful, in His time.
Lord, please show me every day,
As You’re teaching me Your way,
That You do just what You say,
In Your time.

In Your time, in Your time,
You make all things beautiful, in Your time.
Lord, my life to You I bring,
May each song I have to sing
Be to You a lovely thing,
In Your time.

Lord, please show me everyday,
As you’re teaching me Your way
That You do just what You say
In Your time
