With all the internet helps and handy apps that are available today, it’s remarkably easy to create a plan, map it out, put it into action and track progress. But even when you are ready to go, God frequently says, ‘Sit tight, and be still.’ Even though we might acknowledge His timing as being perfect, few of us like waiting for anything.

Scripture makes it clear that we “reap what we sow” (Galatians 6:7) and that sin always has consequences (Proverbs 5:22). The problem is those penalties don’t always show up immediately.

How much of that cultural strategy carries over into your attitude about God? Do you only pay attention to what’s on the ‘headlines’ while ignoring what He is writing in the smaller and less noticeable ‘fine print’ of your life?
