Key Verse for today "He has made everything beautiful in its time." — Ecclesiastes 3:11

Devotional: Waiting is hard, especially when we’re longing for answers or looking for change. We live in a world that prizes speed and instant results, so it’s natural to feel frustrated or even abandoned when things don’t happen on our timeline. But Scripture reminds us that God’s timing is different from ours.

In Ecclesiastes, we read that there is a time for everything—a season for every purpose under heaven. God’s timing is often mysterious, but it is always perfect. He sees the whole picture, weaving together the details of our lives in ways we can’t fully understand. Just as a seed takes time to grow into a tree, so do God’s plans unfold in their appointed time, often in ways that are beyond what we imagined.

Sometimes, waiting is the very process God uses to prepare us. In those times of stillness, we learn patience, deepen our trust, and grow in ways we might not have expected. So if you’re in a season of waiting, take heart. God’s timing is always worth the wait, and He is making something beautiful—even if you can’t see it yet.

Reflection & Prayer Prompt: Reflect on a season in your life when waiting felt difficult. What did God teach you during that time? Ask Him to help you trust His timing in the areas where you’re waiting today.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for reminding me that Your timing is perfect. Help me to be patient in seasons of waiting, trusting that You are making everything beautiful in its time. Give me faith to hold on to Your promises, knowing that You are always at work. Amen.
