In Judges 13:1-5, we discover the story of Samson. It is interesting, that although the angel of the Lord appeared to her, she is known as “Manoah’s wife”, and then as Samson’s mother. Her name is not given to us in these verses.
There are times we may feel unnoticed, unqualified, or unable to make a difference in the world. Yet when the time is right, God opens the door. We find purpose and significance to all we have done and are doing.
The angel says to Manoah’s wife in verse 3,
“Even though you have been unable to have children, you will soon become pregnant and give birth to a son.” (NLT)
Soon. It is defined as being “without undue time lapse” (Merriam-Webster Dictionary).
We tend to think it means in a short while, before too long, or eventually. But with God it means at the opportune time. The time most favorable, perfectly timed in which He works and moves in our lives, according to His purposes.
We all have a “soon” moment which we are waiting for in our lives. Won’t you join me at Woman to Woman Ministries HERE and let’s talk about how we process our waiting time.
