Singing by the lyrics

My 2 years old daughter was singing with her nanny. Her nanny tried to lead her into singing the song line after line. But my daughter kept on jumping the line and not singing according to the order of the song's lyrics. Every time she did that her nanny would say "No. Not yet." and asked my daughter to sing after her.

I realized that in our life so many times we did not follow the order events. We try to jump the line in order to get things that we desire as quickly as possible. Instead of singing the song according to its lyrics, we tend to jump first few lines and go straight away to the fifth or sixth line. By doing so, we make the song sound weird. The beauty of the song was ruined. And every time we need to be reminded of our mistake.

In the Bible God told us that there is time for everything. We cannot expect to get something that we desire if it's not the time yet. Many times God has to remind us "No. Not yet". If He allowed us to jump to the next event when it's not the time yet, we will change His plans for us. That is why, God keeps on reminding us and He does it in various ways. Sometimes He has to do it the hard way when His soft action did not take affect on us. He just doesnt want us to do it when the time is not there yet. He will give it to us when the time is right.
