Many times in my life I have thought about eternity.  I would think about being alive a million years from now, ten million, a hundred million and it would literally give me a headache.  It was so mind boggling to me.  Then one day in this process, I remembered a verse in the book of Revelation that said there would be no more time.  (Rev. 10:6)  What a difference!  No more time.  No past.  No future.  Only the present.  What a blessing!

As the days went by and I continued to think on this phenomenon, something else began to shape in my mind.  God created time but He doesn't live in it.  There is no past or future for Him.  Only the present.  Before the foundation of the world and the end of time are the present to Him.  

Things began to make sense to me.  When I ask for something like healing, I am to thank Him for it because it has been granted, immediately!  It is simultaneously a matter of faith, {trusting Him that He did what I asked), and gratitude, (acknowledging that it has already been done).

The thing that has been difficult for me is waiting for changes in my body.  I don't actually know His process.  He may just touch my body and I see the results immediately; He may start a process that will take a while; He might use a doctor or any other way He chooses.  The point I'm trying to make is that it is done in His "no time" zone but I may have to wait in my "time" zone.   

I am seeing prayers answered now that I prayed years ago.  I actually gave up on them because I didn't understand this concept.  Our human way of trying to explain this has been said many millions of times, I am sure, --- "Sometimes God says yes, wait or no" --- to cover the answer not being seen or experienced in, what we call, a reasonable time frame.

Mat 18:19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
