Things always happen on his time.  We may want something so bad, but he may not be ready to give it to us.  He may be three days late, but he's always on time.  His ways are not our ways.  Neither are his thoughts our thoughts.  He tell us this in His Word.  And yet we wonder and are discouraged when things don't happen the way we think it should, or on our timetable.  His miracles are always exactly on time.  His time. 

This is very true. People always complain that God isn't listening because he doesn't give what they ask for right when they ask for it. This is why we also need to pray for patience. God gives us everything we need and if he gives us it late then thats when we are supposed to get it. Its not late its perfect time. And we needed that time that we didn't have it. If he doesn't give it at all, then we were never meant to have it and he gave us something better. But we just dont know it.
