Time and the way of humility

Everything Has Its Time To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:
Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NKJV)

To everything in life, there is a season, a season which will not tarry or delay at its appointed time. The world today witnessed a smooth handover of power here in the United States of America. The event evokes different stories and meanings to different people, yet it reveals the trappings of a divine setup and execution. The son of an African immigrant rising up to lead the most powerful nation on the planet and ability to dine with kings and rulers. A Joseph-like story and a David-like episode which showcases the workings of God lifting sons and daughters from obscurity to prominence for the glory of God. Every human being is a container of possibilities - because they are an image of Jehovah God. He the Lord created both men and women and declared it was good. Every human being is God's creation and destined for a purpose. Every creation of God must be humble, driven by agape, God's true love. Loving our fellow human being as ourselves, patient and Christ-like towards a hostile world, merciful and gracious like the one who paid our price free of charge.

The humble He guides in justice, and the humble He teaches His way.
Psalm 25:9 (NKJV)

We must redeem the times and the way of humility, we must embrace. In this will our way and path be guided to good success and fulfillment.

Be encouraged,
