We know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God (Romans 8:28; NLT).

Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him (Psalm 37:7; NIV).

********************************

Lord, you can’t be hurried,
Or restricted;

You cannot be controlled,
Or made to wait.

Lord, you can’t be pressured,
Or commanded;

You are never early,
Never late.

Instead, your timing, Lord,
Is always perfect –

You make things work together
For our good;

So, may we seek you humbly,
And with patience,

As we wait in contemplation,
Full of love.
