Time. We try to grasp it, to bend it to our will, to race ahead of it. Yet, it moves to a rhythm of its own. A melody only the divine can compose. And there is beauty in divine timing: how destiny unfolds, how unexpected moments arise, and how we wait with bated breath.
Therese Adelle Prentice’s Spirit and Light carries this truth in every line, prayer, and declaration of faith. Her poetry does not rush—it breathes. It teaches us that waiting is sacred. That delay is not denial; it is preparation. When we surrender to the divine flow, we find that everything has always been right on time.
The Silence Before the Symphony
There are seasons when all we hear is silence. When prayers don’t present an outcome and doors refuse to open. We wonder if we have been forgotten.
Yet, Prentice’s words remind us:
“He has greater plans than we could ever dream.
I’m sure you’ll be amazed,
it’ll be like nothing you’ve ever seen!”
Like an artist standing before a blank canvas, like a musician just before the first note is played—our waiting is not without purpose. It is the divine preparing the masterpiece, tuning the strings of our souls before the great crescendo.
The Surrender That Sets Us Free
We hold so tightly to control, mistaking our timelines for His. But there is freedom in release, in trusting that what is meant for us will arrive at the perfect moment.
“Have you determined to let go and surrender all control?
He’ll heal your heart, refresh your mind,
and completely free your soul.”
Step aside and let divine love take the lead. To loosen our grip is to open our hands for something greater. To surrender is to finally exhale, knowing that we were never meant to carry it all alone.
The Moment Everything Aligns
And then, suddenly, everything shifts. The doors swing open. The path becomes clear. The prayer that once seemed unanswered was actually being prepared all along.
“Now the victory is ours,
as we watch crumbling towers,
and all that is old wash away.
Then all rise in rebirth,
and we build the new earth,
where love, peace, and truth rule the day!”
Divine timing is not random. It is not delayed. It is not broken. It is a story written by hands far wiser than our own, unfolding in perfect harmony.
Embracing the Beauty of the Unfolding
So, what can we learn from a poet’s heart?
- Trust the Process – Even in the waiting, there is wisdom. Even in the unknown, there is grace.
- Release the Fear – What is meant for you will never miss you. What is unfolding is beyond what you could imagine.
- Be Ready to Step Forward – When the moment arrives, will you be courageous enough to step into it?
You need to trust in divine timing and believe that every pause, every detour, every moment of waiting is leading us somewhere beautiful.
So, the next time you wonder if you’ve been forgotten, remember:
“Just trust and let Him lead you to all that He has planned!”
For everything, in its time, will bloom.
