I must be in a time thing recently, I wonder why 🤔. Anyway, my stepmom loves this statement and I have heard her use it so many times. I know I have told you this before. It goes with the statement that everything happens in God’s time, not our time. Being impatient won’t help. You just have to wait until s/he gives you the green light.
I now wonder if you have to wait on the right time how do you make your own life work? Or is it that your life works within the ambits of the right time? Is it as Seneca says that there is no luck, it’s opportunity meeting preparedness.”
Is it really everything in it’s time or is it just that we are waiting hoping that whatever happens will be as we want it to be? If we push when it’s not the right time then will the delicate structure one built come tumbling down? How does this work? Is it similar to the not now, no, yes answer to any question?
Let me know if you agree or disagree. I really want to know what you are thinking, and I know others do too. Try commenting 👍🏽, but if you are not comfortable, reach out to me via any medium. Your comments let me know how you feel and very often give me a total different perspective on the topic. 😉. And you can never tell your comment might help others.
Always remember life is for living and you must always live your best life. #lifeisforliving #liveyourbestlife.

There are several parts of this question that has to be addressed before any answer can even be even considered applicable.
1. Does a person have to believe in any God or deity for this to apply? Or would the answer apply regardless?
2. If a person does believe in a God, which God is it? All Gods are certainly not the same, and anyone who subscribes to the belief that all gods are the same certainly never heard of the god Wepwawet among others.
3. Is “the right time” based solely on a person’s feelings or is there a circumstance that must first happen for “the right time” to be appropriately labeled?
Since I know of no other “Almighty” God except the one of the Bible (Jesus), then the answer to that question is simple and stated quite clearly in the Bible itself… “A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.” – Proverbs 16:9
No man is perfect and all powerful, therefore cannot circumstantially create a “right time” based purely on anyone’s own timing except the right circumstances become available and possible for that person to fulfil their plans.
In the Bible, the generations from Adam to the first Israelite Father (Abraham) was 1948 years. Four thousand years later Jesus declared the Israelite nation will be scattered throughout the world but in the last days He will bring them back as a nation and give them a land they never worked or fought for. 2,000 later Hitler said no Israelite will ever have a land for themselves and decided to kill all Jews and burn all Bibles so this could never be a reality. The Jews were scattered.
When Hitler died the United Nations was formed to prevent such dictatorship from ever happening again. As a show of sympathy and “humanitarianism” they gave the Israelites a nation for themselves. A land they never worked or fought for.
That happened in 1948. Exactly 1948 years after the “second Adam” Jesus Christ (Jesus is called the second Adam in the Bible because, like Adam, He came into the world from one Heavenly Father.
So is there a “perfect time?” In the real world world, yes. Is it in man’s timing? No. No one can do anything unless God creates a way.
God bless.
Well said. It’s all in God’s time. God has to create the way 🙏🏽
There is one true and living God. If we say we are a child of God. We should know this time we living in don’t belong to us. We have no control over our time on this earth, however, we can utilize the time giving to us wisely. The book of Matthew spoke about denying our self daily and pick up the cross and follow Jesus.
Yes God time is perfect that’s what I believe. Lazarus was raised four days after. I believe that scenario showed us very well that it’s God timing not man. Also the book of Jerimaiah spoke about God turning us over to our reptubate mind. If God be God serve him. God time a God time.
All things in God’s time. We work within God’s plan. But how do we know the plan? Just dawn on me.
Very good question Andrea, how do we know the plan? That is one of the things shown to us from multiple examples in the Bible. Without getting into boring details (for some) we are shown in the bible is that God gives us the freedom to make our plans and do what we need to (or should do) to get there, all God expects from us is patience towards Him and perseverance in our plans and He Himself will ordain the necessary circumstances to bring our plans to pass. However, if there is danger, trouble, severe consequences or iniquity in our plans God reserves His right to either not bring our plans to pass (but also revealing a better plan), or bring us through the difficulties, or to delay our plans until the results will be way better than we expected.
Here are a few verses concerning this….”Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for Him” (Psalm 37:7), for God is good to those who wait for Him (Lamentations 3:25). Our patience often reveals the degree of trust we have in God’s timing. We must remember that God operates also according to His perfect and foreordained eternal schedule, not ours. We should take great comfort in knowing that, when we wait on the LORD, we receive His guidance and strength: “But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint” (Isaiah 40:31). The psalmist reiterates: “Wait on the LORD; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the LORD!” (Psalm 27:14).
And finally, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.” ~ Ephesians 3:20-21
The Lord shall show the way and it’s for us to decide which path to take. I like it. 🙏🏽
