Beautiful... in His time..

chatting with a friend... something was said... "ouch. k.. that stung" was my reply. i was quite surprised at how the statement gripped my heart. but as the conversation continued, i believe God spoke.
after hanging up the phone... i watched the sun slowly set... beautiful... beyond description...it was breath-taking...i couldn't move. i just knelt on my mattress by the window and gazed in awe at how beautiful my God created the sky...the clouds...the sun...the colours he generously smeared across the sun-setting sky.

in fact. this time it was different. the sun was behind a cloud...n there was a thin outline on the upper lining of the cloud. and a shaddowed pathway extended from that cloud. i wish i had a better camera to take it with. but it was just unbelievably beautiful. the picture i took isn't even close to it's actual beauty.

anyway, as i was just absorbing in the scenery, i was reminded how our Creator makes all things beautiful... in His time.

Ecclesiastes 3:11
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end.

He makes all things beautiful in His time. I think what we have now is beautiful... but even if things don't happen the way we might like it to, just remember, He makes ALL things BEAUTIFUL!! if u think this is good, u can't even IMAGINE what God has in store for u. Be excited about that!! :D if u think a person has fulfilled ur criteria, and the answer is still no.. well, think about the gift God will give u!! it'll be so much better than what u have now.

remember what i said about skies and things that need to be settled? i'm not one for miraculous signs and stuff but yeah... and i completely agree with what you wrote. what we have IS beautiful, and in His time, and in His time... we just can't put God in a box.
