Our Creator IS NOT DEAD!

9 Reasons the Creator's Timing Is Perfect
1. He Doesn’t Have Deadlines
Each day we are confronted with deadlines. Reports have to be submitted at work and homework must be turned in at school.
Creator doesn’t have these deadlines and He is not overly concerned about ours but He does want the best for us. If we have deadlines we must follow through on our worldly obligations knowing that Creators timing never occurs in haste.
2. He Is Never Impatient
Creator is never impatient and His timing isn’t rushed. His schedule is solely based on caring for His flock and we are a part of it (also read Best Ways To Spend Time With Creator).
Most of us are quite the opposite of patient. We live in a fast-paced society and even the most patient people tend to want quick results. Patience is a wonderful character trait to develop and it’s even more important when we are waiting on Crator's timing.
To become more Christ-like, pray for Creator's patience and you’ll better understand God’s timing.
3. Creator's Timing Is Honest
God’s timing is always honest. Everything occurs in His perfect timing and there are no games with waiting nor is there truth that has been manipulated.
This reason why Creator's timing is better is based on how He answers our prayers. When we receive guidance in His perfect timing, we get the truth.
After all, the Bible is God’s truth and we can find all His guidance in Scripture – it never contradicts!
4. His Judgement Is Never Clouded
Have you ever made a major decision without having something else on your mind? Our minds are filled with so many things each day and sometimes it’s tough to make a clear decision without being influenced.
Influence can come from our own desires, from friends, or more generally media and society. At times we won’t even realize how we’ve been influenced.
When things happen in Creator’s timing, we know He is never influenced by others or by society. His timing is precise and clear and He doesn’t have a priority checklist of who to help or answer first.
Creator’s timing is right and His judgment is never clouded.
5. He Only Has You In Mind
There are billions of people on the planet, and billions before have lived on Earth. As humans, our circle of acquaintances is limited (my Bible reading guide for beginners).
We can only know so many people and whether we notice it or not we prioritize the people around us based on importance. For most people, family is a priority, then friends and church family, then work colleagues.
It’s hard to manage all of our relationships and we only have so much time in a day.
Creator has and wants a relationship with all of us. He waits patiently to hear our praise, our confessions, and our questions. Even though He knows all of our hearts, when we come to Him we are treated as the only one.
With you in mind, God’s timing will always be perfect. You won’t be second in line!
6. Creator’s Timing Has Perspective
Creator has perspective for our lives and for the world. He created the world long ago and His timeframe is vast – it is far greater than our short lives.
This doesn’t mean Creator’s timing will come after we are gone, but it does mean that He has perspective that we can’t understand. Compared to God we have a narrow perspective, built around our schools, places of work, and places of worship.
We can travel, read, and study Scripture and this give us new perspectives, yet it is still nothing compared to the perspective of Creator. Trust the Creators timing because He has perspective.
7. Even His “Bad Timing” Is Perfect
Recently I heard a neighbor comment about an acquaintance. He said “he had horrible timing”. Bad timing exists, and it can can cause problems.
Bad timing can result in traffic accidents, a missed meeting, and getting caught in the rain. God’s timing, however, isn’t attached to our worldly occurrences and even though it might seem like bad timing to us, it’s always perfect.
There is always a reason behind His timing.
How could Creator's’s timing be bad?
8. There Are Never Strings Attached
In our lives decision are often made with obligations associated to them. Some are direct (contracts) while others are indirect (inferred obligations).
God’s timing, whether in answered prayers, blessings, or challenges never have strings attached. God will never say “Do this for me and I’ll do that for you”. His guidance and answered prayers are a result of His goodness.
Even Creator's blessings are provided with pure intentions. As Christians, Creator expects us to act in accordance with His Word. However, there are never strings attached when He guides us (also read Funny Christian Pick-up Lines).
9. No Appointment Necessary
Have you ever made an appointment with Creator? This is actually a great idea for organizing your daily routine and ensuring that you spend time with Him.
Making a daily appointment with Creator is a way to hold ourselves accountable and interact with Him. With this said, Creator never requires an appointment. He is available any time of day and He always listens.
God’s timing is perfect in regards to His availability. Our timing is limited by the hours in a day, by school and work, and by our need to sleep.
All Be Blessed :-)
