Take the Journey!
Whether considering the deep mysteries or the everyday matters of life, we have a tendency to out-think God.
- Is this God’s plan?
- Why does God allow this?
- Is this exactly what scripture means?
- Where will this lead me?
- Is God testing me?
Some ponder while others go.
While I enjoy reflecting, speculating, wondering, and thinking about God’s will and His ways, I recognize that at the end of the day I must act in faith.
Faith is moving forward into the unknown.
Faith never sees the way, it only sees God.
The prophet Habakkuk teaches, “The saints live by faith!” (1)
I appreciate his emphasis on LIVE! Get on with your life! Trust God even when you do not understand His ways.
Let actual circumstances be what they may be. Look to Jesus. Trust Him and His love for you. Live knowing that He will bring you safely to shore.
Jesus will do that! While He will not keep your life free from trouble and uncertainty, He will remain at the helm with you during the storms and through the night.
The Lord will keep you from all evil; He will keep your life.
The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore. (2)
