The failure to fully comprehend what season of time we're currently in is a major factor in the confusion and frustration often associated with entering into the fullness of God's plan for our lives. Since we live in a highly technological age that promotes simple and easy access to almost anything desired, the idea of waiting on God is becoming increasingly difficult for people to understand. The ensuing result is that people who bypass the process unknowingly sabotage their destiny. Steven, by virtue of the wisdom gained through his own real-time experiences, has written this wonderful book to help us understand the concept of time and the dynamics thereof as connected to the call of God in life. Trusting God's Timing should be read by all believers, whether called to full-time ministry or not. It offers a plethora of information based on the lives of Joseph, David, and a host of others to help us avoid and overcome any pitfalls waiting to ensnare us along the way. He has masterfully shared his revelations about dealing with the process of time from the original call of God to its completion. I encourage you to read, meditate, and apply these truths to your life, and as you do, you will overcome the temptation to take the path of least resistance to the intended goal, and thus finish in the right time and the right place, as God originally intended. -Pastor Brent Rudoski Senior Pastor of Faith Alive Family Church, Saskatoon Author, Jesus Was Not a Rebel have been a pastor for nearly twenty-five years. During that time I have met many people who have a dream from God. Many never see it fulfilled. They become frustrated with passing time, not realizing that Jesus is using that time to prepare them for their future. Steven's book gives great insight into the things God wants to accomplish in us during that time. We hear a lot about seed and harvest. But the Bible talks about seed, time, and harvest. This book will encourage all of us with the seed of a vision from God to enjoy the journey of passing time before entering into the harvest. A delay of the dream is not a denial. Allow this book to show you how God is using this time to get you ready for bigger things! -Pastor Eric Johns Senior Pastor of Buffalo Dream Center Many years ago I heard a prophet deliver a message to a man: "Preparation is not lost time." Over the years I have observed many abort or abandon the plan God has for their lives because they refuse to embrace the season of preparation. Character development is essential to longevity in ministry. Steven does a great job communicating these truths in his easy to read yet powerful insight into the concept of time and how the Father uses it. This book will encourage anyone who is weary with the process to enjoy the journey and stand firm in the midst of the struggle. -Rev. Richard Ciaramitaro President of Open Bible Faith Fellowship of Canada Trusting God's Timing is a great word for many ministers to follow and adhere to. It is easy to read and absorb. The message in this book is a must for anyone with a vision and call from God to apply to their lives and ministry. I like the way Steven includes his own life story and challenges over the years. He shares from real experiences. I have seen Steven grow from a shy young man who was afraid to talk to anyone to a bold, compassionate man of God walking in God's vision for his life. My story is much the same. I congratulate him for going way beyond his comfort zone and outside of what others have told him wasn't possible and walked by faith for the glory of God and His Kingdom. -Kim Weiler Founder of Fe Viva World Missions
