Good Morning!! The Chinese bamboo is famous for its fast growth. In a period of five weeks, a sprout can grow 90 feet. Well, it actually takes five years, for the plant to grow 90 feet,...but during the first four and a half years, farmers must take extra good care of the sprouts,...with almost no visible results. For those that patiently persist,...receive great rewards.
The revelation awaits an appointed time. ... Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.—Habakkuk 2:3 (NIV)
Some of us have prayed,...and worked for years,...without any visible results. Sometimes our situation can even seem to get worse, and we are tempted to give up. At these times we must learn to count our blessings, and remind ourselves that God is faithful and "rewards those who earnestly seek him" (Heb. 11:6). Knowing God's trustworthiness, we are able to encourage our souls, "Only wait!"
So often God's power is at work in our lives,
...just beneath the surface.
Holy Spirit of God, remind us that God's power is always working in our lives,...even if we can see it yet. In Jesus' name. Amen.
"Our needs can never exhaust God's supply."
