Have you ever been fully engrossed in a movie and then needed to push “pause”? The movie is still on; you just had to step away for a moment to complete another task or tend to another matter. Well, I want to encourage anyone who is experiencing that scenario in real life. You were in full pursuit of the promises of God, and then He pushed the pause button.
To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven. (Ecclesiastes 3:1 NKJV)
There is a time for everything that God has ordered for your life, but God operates outside of our time. We operate in chronological time (chronos)—the sequential, linear passage of time. But God moves through chronos and operates in kairos, which does not measure how much time passes but what happens within it—God’s appointed time—that moment when God’s will connects with your purpose, your faith, and your obedience.
But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. (2 Peter 3:8 NKJV)
