31 Days of Gratitude. Day 18

God moves in mysterious ways and today I witnessed it. Little things that make a huge impact are his hand in the human drama, invisibly pushing us in directions we would not have predicted. I'm learning to sit back and observe the underpinnings that part the waters! I'm grateful to learn to see with sight that has nothing to do with my eyes.

Things move in their own time.  You can push against the tide, but when things are as they were meant to be, that's when change happens.  Not before.  We are impatient.  We want immediate answers to our prayers.  It becomes frustrating when you keep going through the same motions without different results.

I've learned this lesson  - things happen in their own time, in their own way.  You can suggest and apply logic to a situation, often creating a sense of urgency only your own.

Then, as if there's a shifting of the weight from one side to another, things change.  Not because of the pushing and prodding, but because its now the right time.  Can one predict when it will be the right time?  Is the right time, like the perfect storm, something dependent upon alignment of the elements?  Impossible to say.  All I know is nothing is impossible.  It just takes time.
