This week, do not rush past this.

There is a pace you have learned to live at.

A constant movement forward.
A quiet pressure to figure things out.
A sense that if something doesn’t happen soon…
something must be wrong.

And slowly, without realizing it…
urgency begins to feel like truth.

But it isn’t.

His Name is El Olam — the Everlasting God.

The One who is not bound by time…
and is never rushed by it.

“And Abraham called on the name of the Lord, the Everlasting God.”
— Genesis 21:33

“Before the mountains were brought forth,
or ever You had formed the earth and the world,
even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.”
— Psalm 90:2

God does not hurry.

He does not react.

He is not trying to catch up to anything in your life.

He stands outside of time…
seeing the beginning and the end at once.

And yet, He steps into your life
with perfect timing.

Not early.
Not late.

Right.

But your heart has learned a different rhythm.

You feel the need to make something happen.
To fix what feels unresolved.
To move forward when everything feels uncertain.

And in that place…
waiting begins to feel like failure.

But with El Olam, waiting is not wasted.

It is formed.

Shaped.

Held inside a timeline you cannot yet see.

So, stop here and breathe for a moment.

You do not have to rush into what God has not finished.

You do not have to force what He is still forming.

You are not behind.

You are being held inside the timing of the Everlasting God.

Reflect

Where in your life are you feeling pressure to rush?

What would it look like to trust God’s timing instead of forcing your own?

Prayer

El Olam,

You are not rushed,
and You are not late.

Forgive me for the ways I have tried to force
what You are still unfolding.

Quiet the urgency in me
that believes everything must happen now.

Teach me to trust Your timing,
even when I cannot see the full picture.

Anchor me in Your eternal nature…
so I am no longer driven by fear of falling behind.

Let me rest in knowing
that You are already where I am trying to go.

Amen.

If you need a place to slow down and walk with Him this week…
