There is a time for silence too

Some say that silence is a virtue.

There are times when we want to jump in and “fix” someone or a situation.

But, instead of fixing, we end up making it worse. Instead of talking, we must keep quiet and let things be what it is.

God has been working all these years, and He is doing right with His work, even if it seems like it is a BIG mess, and that it may never get “fixed”.

Behold, it is all very good.

It can be tough to keep quiet and let go, but there is great power to let things be as it is.

I have learnt that nothing is perfect, right, or wrong. All is, however, appropriate and fitting.

So, next time, instead of “fixing” the person or situation, try to see the event as appropriate and let go, knowing that it will be resolved without your involvement.
