Good morning beloved, happy Thursday,
“To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven.”
(Ecclesiastes 3:1).
There is a purpose for every believer in Christ. God has a plan for us each day, He just hasn’t revealed to us yet. The best and simplest way to live is one day at a time.
We make plans but God directs our steps according to His will. Yesterday I was planning to buy lunch for some family members. As I pushed the button to open the garage, it wouldn’t open. It worked fine the night before. The spring broke and I couldn’t even open it manually.
I called the company that installed it quite a few years ago but their schedule was full until next week. I several other calls and I found the same situation, until I finally reached one who does emergency repairs. I had to be at Worship Team practice at 6:00. They gave a time window of between 2-4. Just before 4:00 I started getting nervous and called to check on my appointment. The technician arrived at 4:20.
The technician did a great job and was done with plenty of time to get to the church, open our security gate and the church. I rejoiced in God’s faithfulness to me. If this had happened on another day or at another time, things would not been good. Imagine if it happened on a Sunday morning or when I had a doctor appointment.
Solomon also wrote, “He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end” (Ecclesiastes 3:11). God knew all about before it happened.
The old expression is often the case: all’s well that ends well. Have a blessed day according to God’s will. Stay safe and healthy.
God specializes in happy endings.
