1. While I was reading the short Psalm number 70 and I was meditating on it, I noticed that the Psalmist says to the Lord, 'Make haste' three times (v. 1,5 - NKJV), and one time he says, 'Do not delay' (v. 5). I wonder, 'Did the Psalmist not know that passage of the Scripture which says that "God has made everything beautiful in its time" (Ecclesiastes 3:11)? And if he knew it, why then did he say to the Lord, 'Make haste,' and, 'Do not delay'? Furthermore, I wonder, 'Do we question the fact that God answers our prayer in His own time, when we say to the Lord, 'Make haste' and, 'Do not delay'?
