Microwave-fast food-generation

I just realized that we are in a microwaveable-fast food-generationwhen I am a fast-food counter ordering for my dinner of fries, sandwich and a glass of soft drink. I just realized that for the past days, I’ve been like this, always on the go, always hurrying things up, eating fast-food foods while walking on my way home.

Microwave-fast food-generation … well this is true not only to studies, but also on the way young people are acting now a days.. I knew it for the fact that I belong to those young people. We tend to be impulsive and impatient not thinking of the consequence of every act, deed and words we are doing and saying. We tend to be impatient wanting to rush things. There is a season for everything, but somehow, we do like everything now. I can’t forget that year ago, someone told me that “patience is a virtue”. And honestly speaking, this is the highlight of my week: patience! I’ve been impatient. But then I realized, in being unable to wait, this is one way of the world convincing us to settle for less and not wait anymore for something better or even the best.

“RIGHT THING AT THE WRONG TIME IS THE WRONG THING”
Although sometimes (well, in reality, a lot of times), waiting takes some effort, I do believe that, God’s timing is the perfect timing. And I have come up with this idea of waiting for His own timing at the right place and of the right time, because HE is never out of date and His clock is never late.

“THE LONGER YOU WAIT FOR SOMETHING, THE MORE YOU APPRECIATE IT WHEN YOU GET IT,
BECAUSE ANYTHING WORTH HAVING IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING WORTH WAITING”

God bless…may we all have the patience to wait for God’s perfect timing.
