I've recently been reading "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" and came across a wonderful quote about how important it is to WAIT on God's timing:

"...we've lost sight of the biblical principle of seasons (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8).  Just as spring's role is different from that of fall, so each of the seasons of our lives has a different emphasis, focus, and beauty.  One is not better than another; each season yeilds its own unique treasures.  We cannot skip ahead to experience the riches of another life season any more than a farmer can rush the spring.  Each season builds on the one before it.  Like a fruit picked green or a flower picked before it blossoms, our attempts to rush God's timing can spoil the beauty of HIS plan for our lives."   Josh Harris

I've been kind of struggling lately with wanting to have things happen in MY time, but I am striving to realize that what GOD has in store for me is FAR better than anything I could have planned!!  I don't need to try to rush anything, but patiently REJOICE in every season of my life!!  May we all learn to be patient and wait on Heavenly Father's perfect time....
