Universal Timing

The Universe gives us what we need at the right time. It may not be in our time but it’s still the right time.

I remember as a little girl, I got this idea of praying for money, asking God to give me money. I never received a response but that did not stop me. I continued to ask. Coming from a poor family, I guess I wanted God to understand that I had a real need for money, my own money in my hand, not money given to me through my parents who were responsible for my care. I wanted my own money.
One day, I recall going to school and not having any lunch. I do not know why it happened since I always remembered my mother packing a lunch flask daily with what we refer to as “pot food”, meaning food that came from the kitchen pot. We refer to pot food as food that was cooked in a home kitchen. It was flavourful most times, and usually quite filling.
Anyway, this day I had no lunch. It was lunchtime. I was hungry and knew I had three more hours before school let out. I was desperate so I went for a walk and made my way towards a bakery near my school. Some lucky children were able to go there to purchase their lunch daily but not me, I was never given lunch money so I simply stood near a wall on the opposite side of the street, looking at the bakery and wishing I could go inside and buy something to eat.
Then something inside my head, I guess we call it intuition nowadays, told me to look down and there in a crack of the stone wall was 25 cents, just like it was waiting for me to pick it up. I was shocked and elated at the same time. I did not even stop to think that God had finally answered my prayer for money. I took the coin and ran to the bakery and got a coconut rock bun for lunch. It was the sweetest bun I had even eaten and I still remember it today.

So now, whenever I ask the Universe for something, I know it will come in divine timing. It is not when I want it, which is always NOW but when the Universe sees it fit to give it to me. I believe in the Law of Attraction and in believing in this law, I also believe that things we want to attract come to us, not in our time but according to universal timing.

We ask, affirm, trust, and then let go.
