Amen Stuart!  I have at times be obsessed with the "when" at the expense of the "Who"
 
Let us remember, God's time and ways are not our time and ways, as we try to interpret them.
Sure, maybe there are clues locked in Biblical text as to when, etc.  However, in and of itself that is not important.  What is important is to practice Ephesians 4:17-24; to paraphrase . . .in the futility of their mind, the ignorance that is in them, given themselves over to sensuality . . ., but, you did not learn Christ in this way, lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit, and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and put on the new self, which is the likeness of God . .
 
Teach me Lord, teach me Lord to wait!  I will add, patiently and while being His bondservant.
