Who's In Control?

Psalm 75:2 You say, "I choose the appointed time; it is I who judge uprightly."

Timing is everything. This is something I am learning in a new way. I am waiting on God's timing, taking action when He moves me and being still when He tells me.  Being still is the harder of the two for me.  I am a woman of action.  I like to get things done.  I like to wield my hand and use the skills and talents I have to accomplish great things. This is a time in my life where God has been very clear that I need to be still.  He has set me in a situation where He is about to show His ability, His skills and talents, so to speak.  I have been instructed to be still so that God can do what only God can do. Whatever is next on my journey will not have anything to do with me, my skills, or my talents, that much I know. God is doing something that only He can do, to humble me and show me that I often lean on my own strength and my own abilities. The problem is that I thought I was always good about giving God the glory, but in my heart I was controlling much of what happened on my own. Now God is moving in order to receive the glory that is His due and I could not be more excited about that.  I am not even close to being in control of what God is up to nor do I have a clue what He is doing.  He just gives me little glimpses here and there to keep my soul at peace and my hope alive.  In His time, He will reveal what's next and it will be of Him and not me.  I love that story!
