Recently, I purchased an album for my iPod. A fairly large collection of music, I had been waiting for quite some time to buy it, so I was excited about getting it downloaded.
The next day, I was driving and decided it was a prime time to listen. The music was not there! Nothing, nada, zip.
Returning home, I emailed the Apple people and got a very kind reply. The instructions were simple: all I had to do was click a few times in the right places, and there was my music, just waiting for me. It had been there all the time.
And that is the way it is with me and God, all too often. Everything I need is already there. I wonder why I don't have what I need, when what's really going on is he has to wait for me to be ready, to step out in trust, to surrender.
It's already there. What is preventing me from receiving what God has for me today?
