Time Quote by Ann H. Gabhart
““So do you have a cure in your medicine bag?' Ben tried to lighten the moment. 'No. But I do have something my grandmother told me once. When things are the most confused in our lives, that's when the Lord can work best.' 'I don't like confusion. I like things laid out in straight rows with everybody knowing which rows belong to them.' 'But life is rarely that way. We make squiggles and turns and sometimes things work out and sometimes they don't. But either way the Lord has a plan and a purpose.' 'If that's true, he hasn't let me in on what it is. That plan and purpose.' She smiled. 'He will. When it's time. That's another thing she said. His time is not our time.””
