• It is God's prerogative to determine when something is to happen or when something is to be done or not done

• God chose when to "teach" / "show" us His way and He has done so in the Scriptures 2Tim 3:15-17

• We must respond to what He has taught and shown us in the Scriptures and 2Cor 6:2 says the time to respond is NOW!

• When we respond in obedience to His will, He then makes us "beautiful" again, just as man was in the beginning, He makes us His children and promises us an inheritance in the most beautiful place of all - heaven!
