Time and Eternity

Time is a fickle thing. It seems we are never given enough of it and to Paul it is evil. As things decay through the years we must remember we are meant for a purpose. God gives us a purpose, to simply glorify him. As we reach out that purpose becomes more and more defined as we find ourselves in him. He gives legs and arms to your work. Whether it be something we planned or not. Let the lord build you up and give you revelation. I can see if we wait like God waits( 1 Kings 18:42-45) we will see more life in our life as we wait it and take it in. 
1 Kings 18:42-45:

And Elijah said to Ahab, "Go,eat and drink, for there is the sound of a heavy rain." So Ahab went off to eat and drink, but Elijah climbed to the top of Carmel, bent down to the ground and put his face between his knees.
42 "Go and look toward the sea, he told his servant. And he went up and looked.
"There is nothing there," he said.
Seven times Elijah said, "Go back."
The seventh time the servant reported, "A cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea."
So Elijah said, "Go and tell Ahab, 'Hitch up your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.'"
45 Meanwhile, the sky grew black with clouds, the wind rose, a heavy rain come and Ahab rode off to Jezreel. (New International Version)

Wait till the seventh time and you will get your rain in drought. The question of this is do we wait on God this way. Wait till the seventh time do we hear Go.
Look to Christ Jesus for life, he will give it to you abundantly. We wait till all the other things has passed in our mind and we seek his face in our mind. Then the still small voice comes and we are given such joy.  
So wait like God this is found biblically in 1 Kings 19:11-12: 

11 The Lord said, "Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the LORD, for the LORD is about to pass by."
Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.
Then a voice said to him, "What are you doing here, Elijah? (New International Version)

Wait pass the earthquake, wind, and fire to the still small voice.  Wait till the seventh time and you will get the still small voice. Believe Jesus and repent for you never know when eternity starts for you. Enter a relationship with him and he will start to transform your life in many ways to help you along this life's journey. Seek the Lord's face in your mind and wait till you hear the still small voice. That's seeking his face and keep seeking it.
God bless you.
