But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Today I will use poetic imagery to convey my opinion, that our life's journey invites us to remain patient, in the face of our overwhelming wish to realise our aspirations driving us to despair with our resilience encouraging us to remain focused on the moment...not the end result.
Here I will once again cite the experience of the Prophet Job remaining faithful to God, waiting for The Father to deliver on His promises to Job. Our Father daily reminded Job, when responding to Job's complaints, that He would contine to transform Job into His most beloved child, until the time apppinted when He would deliver on all that He had promised Job.
Our life's dance timely, patiently, by design reveals the ways in which we are bonded together by invisible threads of rhythm, yet isolated from each other by what may be perceived to be walls of time. When looking back over the years there is an awareness that those chance encounters with people who prompted us to change our direction was not the coincidence that we then believed. Over time we learn through our relationships that there is an invisible designer arranging our life's story...ongoing with the understanding that those synchronistic meetings were, and are being orchestrated to implement a plan for our life's purpose.
For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world,
in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. ~ Romans 1:20
Synchronistic phenomena might well encourage us to be more observant, and much more open to the thought that behind every perceived coincidence, Divine Providence intervenes to place us back on the path that The Father has designed for our well being.
Our intuition often interrupts our thoughts counselling us to rethink our current plans, replacing them with a proposal better suited to our real needs. Intuition derives from the Latin word, intueri ‘to look at, consider,’ otherwise insight, immediate cogntion.
“There is no such thing as a coincidence and there are no accidents in God's creation.”~ E.A. Bucchianeri
