God can call you to something, but that does not mean it will happen today. The Lord often makes people wait for his will to be done. God promises that he will always be with you until your life’s end, which means you don’t have to wait alone. His word will put you in those hard places where it feels like you can’t wait any longer. Yielding to the Holy Spirit will lead to the patience you need to get through anything the world can throw at you.
God is outside of time. Genesis 1 says in the beginning God, meaning that from the beginning before anything was created, he already existed. He is called the Alpha and the Omega because he is at the start and the end. God is outside of time because he is the one who created time itself. God’s timing is better because he can see the whole picture. He can see many details in the story that you could barely fathom. Here are 20 Calming Bible Verses for God’s Timing.

Kingdom Cards – Memory Bible Verse Cards for God’s Timing
Kingdom Cards remind you of the truth of Psalm 103:19 – “The Lord has established his thrones in the heavens, and his Kingdom rules over all.” When Christians forget that truth, they try to be king over their own lives, and that never works out well. Kingdom Cards remind you of the God who rules over all and what his word has to say. The more you can store his word in your head and heart, the easier it will be to walk with Jesus when he calls you to be patient and trust him.
