Wait and Arrive

5 Then I, Daniel, looked, and behold, two others stood, one on this bank of the stream and one on that bank of the stream. 6 And someone said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream,“How long shall it be till the end of these wonders?” 7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream; he raised his right hand and his left hand toward heaven and swore by him who lives forever that it would be for a time, times, and half a time, and that when the shattering of the power of the holy people comes to an end all these things would be finished. 8 I heard, but I did not understand. Then I said, “O my lord, what shall be the outcome of these things?” 9 He said, “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are shut up and sealed until the time of the end. 10 Many shall purify themselves and make themselves white and be refined, but the wicked shall act wickedly. And none of the wicked shall understand, but those who are wise shall understand. 11 And from the time that the regular burnt offering is taken away and the abomination that makes desolate is set up, there shall be 1,290 days.12 Blessed is he who waits and arrives at the 1,335 days. 13 But go your way till the end. And you shall rest and shall stand in your allotted place at the end of the days.” (Daniel 12)
Daniel had the privilege of being intimately involved with one of the times that history and HIS story (God's story) publicly intersected. He saw Jerusalem fall, yet God remaining faithful to His people, himself included.  God showed him a lot of things for that day, and for days and centuries to come. But not everything.  When Daniel asked for more, God said "that's more than enough." He told Daniel "Go your way till then end..."  He was not rudely telling him to just go away, but to continue on with his life as God called him to live it, and trust God to work out all the details. God knows and sees all.  Our lives will be blessed if we live them in His presence and watch Him do what only He can do.
