When It's Not Fixed Yet...

     We’ve had a leak under our kitchen in a very difficult spot to get to. We called the plumber to have a look. When he left he said, “It’s not fixed yet, but I have a plan.” He told me the plan and later in the day it was all fixed.

    When we have problems in our life, and we pray to God for help, sometimes His answer is the same. “It’s not fixed yet, but I have a plan.” God doesn’t always fix things instantly. But He does have a plan. Nothing is too hard for Him. And when He delays, it’s for a reason.

    So don’t be discouraged when it seems like God is not answering your prayers. He does have a plan!

    He may not tell you His plan, but you can trust Him to do what’s best.

    “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” Jeremiah 29:11
