"In His Time"

"Sometimes we're discouraged
and it's hard to understand
the reasons why things don't work out
exactly like we've planned...
But underneath the surface
is a purpose we don't know,
and we can trust God's promises
to make our blessings GROW!
So just hang on a little while
with patience and with prayer,
and you may find a precious gift
you didn't know was there!"

This is one of my favorite poems. I found it in a Precious Moments card in college (6 or 7 years ago) and I loved it so I bought several because I think it says just the right thing for those times when things aren't going like you thought they might. Isn't it wonderful that we have a loving Father in Heaven who knows us and knows what is best! I am so grateful for that knowledge.
