A Set Back For A Set Up

You know, after all the Lord has done for me  I still go through these periods when something causes me concern. When a blessing seems to be followed by a set back, that is a set back that I devised in my mind, not in His, I’ve come to realize the blessing He gave had not gone, it was only being perfected, and what I consider to be a setback was  really a setup for what else was needed to get me completely whole, my finite mind cannot keep up with His, my mind can’t even conceive the logic of me going for days without a word, when nothing is moving forward as far as I could see, but then I’m not privy to His complete plan.  I thought about Abraham’s promise from God than seemed like it was never coming to pass, and it’s easy for me shake my head in disgust at the choice that Abraham made in trying to fulfill the promise on his terms, but in reality I might would done the same trying to take hold of God’s promise as if He needed my help at all. Well, I can testify today that God is infinite, He doesn’t need anything from me but trust, when I don’t get it, trust, when the days are long, trust, when the deadline runs all the way off my clock, trust! 

Thank You Lord, I will, and You will!
