Faith's appointed season

7/30/2013

2 Comments

 
Tuesday:   And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint. So then, as occasion and opportunity open up to us, let us do good [morally] to all people [not only being useful or profitable to them, but also doing what is for their spiritual good and advantage]. Be mindful to be a blessing, especially to those of the household of faith [those who belong to God’s family with you, the believers]. (Galatians 6:9, 10 AMP)
There is always an appointed season.  However, the appointed season is not necessarily a circled date on the calendar.  As 21st century believers, we can tend to bring our culture to scripture and try to make it fit.  Appointed seasons don't generally match a calendar schedule.  It's not like the annual occurrence of a birthday or holiday.  

Appointed seasons often require the completion of processes.  Joseph was given dreams at a young age, but had to prepared through a series of circumstances and experiences to be fit for that place.  David was anointed by the prophet to be king, but his journey to the palace was for an appointed time.  That appointed time took David through years of trials and training before it was revealed.

The Father has so much for us.  The paradox is that the more we try to achieve it in our own strength and by our own deadline, the more we will be frustrated and depressed.  Sometimes we have to simply be obedient to what The Lord has spoken to us in the here and now: love your family, serve your friends, honor others.  Build what you can where you are planted.  If we can be patient and obedient in the journey, the appointed time will prove that much sweeter..
