how does one know when
the time of
for such a time as this
has come?
I guess one must
first define "this"
for if you know not
that for which the time
may or may not have come
how would you know if the time
had or had not come?
yet on the other hand
is knowledge of "this"
really of significance?
for if I look in the Bible at those
for whom the time had come
for such a time as this to happen
did they really know in advance
what it is that God had for them?
for sometimes a little knowledge
can be a dangerous thing
and does not God love to
do what we least
expect at a time
when we least
expect using those
we would least expect?
perhaps the details and timing
are not the issue...
perhaps rather
simply being ready
for anything
at anytime
anywhere
is what He asks of us
and if we are searching
and seeking and longing
to know Him more deeply
to hear Him more clearly
will we not find ourselves always ready
for such a time as this?
and this is my prayer
"and I will give them singleness of
heart and put a new spirit
within them." Ezekiel 11:19a
Amen, for such a time as this your Father is using you!
