—Acts 7:30-41
by: Trisha Gerstel.
God’s timing is perfect. Unfortunately, knowing that does not always help us when we are in a period of waiting. When God has called us to, “Be still and know” (Psalm 46:10), our human hearts get anxious and antsy. Thankfully, we have been provided with stories like today’s Scripture reading to remind us that our impatience is not unique—it is something with which every human wrestles. Passages like these also help us remember what happens when we try to speed up a God-ordained process. Oh, that we might avoid that sin and instead stand firm in our faith.
