John 2:4 “Jesus said to her, Woman, this is not your business; my time is still to come”

Every experience in life will only happen when the time is RIPE.

The Lord Jesus knew that His time had not yet come, His time was at the cross . But not only this His time for being revealed did not come into He was 30 years old.

The time for HARVEST and that RIPE time did not occur until first a man named John went ahead and prepared the way.

For us whether we are waiting for a potential spouse or some other event in our life, there has first to be a ripe season for us.

The harvest is not gathered until it is really ripe. The farmer may have anxiously gone into the fields and seen it so near ready but not quite. He may have been worried because the weather was soon going to change but it could not be harvested until it was RIPE.

We are the ones that have to wait for the ripe season when we are ready to reap the harvest of our lives trials. We may see someone we like but unless it is the ripe season we will only fail in trying to reap before its ready. We may feel that we will miss the good opportunity if we do not reap now, but we would only reap a poor harvest unripe and unready to yield a blessing.

The Lord is faithful and if the Jesus had to wait for the time to reap the harvest in His ministry how much more should we?
