If only a second earlier...

"If only it was a second earlier or a second later." In my career with emergency medical services I have heard that phrase time and time again. "If only..." Sometimes it is good and sometimes it is bad.  "If only I was a second sooner or later, then no one would have died." "If only it was... Then this never would have happened."  "If only... my life could have been over."  

As Christians we stress about the "if only times."  We want God to move and act on our time.  Our time however is rarely the right time. Our time usually results in missed blessings and missed opportunities. God's time is always the right time.  He is the author and creator of time and everything else in this universe.  Shouldn't we trust his timing?  

1 Peter 5:6 humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that He may lift you up in due time.

Due time is God's time, God's time is always the right time.  Can I encourage you to trust in the lord's timing?
