8.27.24

For everything there is a season.

The Inventor of time who sent His Son in the fullness of time; the One who declares the times and the epochs. 

Though outside of this time container, He has numbered our days and appointed our comings and goings. We make plans but He directs our steps. Not like a puppet master or robot programmer, but as the One who sees the whole picture, the completed timeline — eternity.

The One who knows our hearts and delights in giving good gifts to His kids reveals His faithfulness over time. He who has planned good works for us to uniquely accomplish proves steadfastness over time. It’s part of the way the boundary lines have fallen in pleasant places.

Yes, even in this space of now and not yet, the Inventor of time has made everything beautiful in its time.
