"and time is in his hands"
This little gem is taken from my favourite worship song of the moment - the splendour of the king, its taken from the album arriving by Chris Tomlin.
There are lots of amazing lines in this TUNE but this one stands out for me. I often get carried away with praying for things and waiting for them in my time scale and looking in places that perhaps aren't there...But the song drums home in one line the answer to all our prayers.
Time really is in his hands and we need to pray for acceptance that everything is in Gods hands (despite how hard it may be to deal with) and have faith that he will answer the cries of our hearts.

"Everything that happens in this world happens at the time God chooses.
He sets the time to be born and the time to die,
the time to plant and the time to uproot,
the time to kill and the time to heal,
the time to tear down and the time to build,
the time to weep and the time to laugh,
the time to mourn and the time to dance,
the time to scatter stones and the time to gather them,
the time to embrace and the time to refrain,
the time to search and the time to give up,
the time to keep and the time to throw away,
the time to tear and the time to mend,
the time to be silent and the time to speak,
the time to love and the time to hate,
the time for war and the time for peace."
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
Have patience and let God do his work in his own good time :)
