I stopped at the first sentence because my understanding is God’s timing is perfect.

Our anticipation or expectation is out of sync with God’s timing.

You are technically correct.

Speaking to that unavoidable out of syncness, however, is compassion. Also, it is my experience that detachment brings ferocious tests. Its better to remain humble, than claim detachment prematurely.

Unless your bored...

I don’t think the article suggests that God’s timing isn’t perfect. Just that we need patience and to trust Him.

In fact the last sentence in the article goes like this: “...and place your full trust completely in the hands of the perfect Timekeeper.”

1. I stopped at the first sentence because my understanding is God’s timing is perfect.
2.Our anticipation or expectation is out of sync with God’s timing.

1. Ditto.
2. Since God always was, is and always will be...and He "invented" time, we have NO IDEA if our anticipation or expectation is out of sync with His. I would HOPE that one expectation would be the same: that I loved Him and wanted to spend eternity with Him in heaven.
