In His Time

It's amazing what time and the touch of my Father's Spirit will do when I'm "all wet."  Clean clothes that are still wet must be readied for wear by hanging for a while in the sun and breeze.

The wind simply does 

wonders to make us "ready."

While some of our trials may need a little more time than a gentle breeze will take, it's this place of quiet waiting upon the Lord where we learn to say, 

“He makes all things

 beautiful (ready)

 in His time.”

It is in this place of rest where most things receive His finishing touch. 

 "Those who wait 

upon the Lord 

will renew

 "their readiness." 

Renewed strength means we're "ready for action."

The clearest indicator that healing rest has occurred is renewed joy in serving.

"When, therefore, you see as in a furnace our flesh flowing away to corruption, dwell not on that sight, but wait for the recasting."~John Chrysostom
