Waiting . ( Psalm 40 v 1 )

They  say timing is everything ,In an old devotional called ,' Springs in the valley ', Mrs . Chas. E. Cowman writes the following,'God always hears, and He never forgets, His silence does not mean that He is not listening and is not planning. Probably it means that the best time of deliverance has not come yet, and that He is patiently waiting for the moment  to arrive when He may prove His love and His power. Cromwell  said to His soldiers just before a great battle; ''Know ye soldiers all,that God always comes to man's  help in the nick of time''. Yes ,God is always in time; never behind never ahead. Happy is the man who learns to wait as he prays, and never loses patience with God. Let us wait His time ; ''He that believeth  shall not make haste''. God's time is the best time. ''When a great issue is in the balance and the path is obscure, wait; but with thy waiting shirk not the work that lieth before thee, for in that task may be the solution of thy problem'

                                                                Romans 4 v 18.

                  'Even when there was reason to hope,Abraham kept hoping  - believing that he would 

                   become the father of many nations.
