Bible Verses on Trusting God’s Timing
My experience with the LORD shows that His timing is different from human timing. If care is not taken you can impatiently seek the dangerous fast lane of the Devil which looks attractive.

This life is not smooth and it cannot be free of trials due to the presence of the Devil. Can we give the excuse of Devil’s presence to the LORD for our distrust in Him? No! He sent Jesus Christ to redeem us from the stronghold of the Devil.
So, start trusting God in all aspect of your life and you would enjoy your temporary time on earth and the eternity.
