What is God calling you to do? What are you struggling with? Have you turned it over to God and asked Him what He wants for your life? He has plans for all of us and a purpose for which He created each one of us. One of my favorite scriptures is Jeremiah 29: 11-14 " For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the Lord, and will bring you back from captivity."
The most amazing times of my life have been when I sought God's will for my life and then OBEYED. It's not enough to just know what God wants you to do, you have to act on it! Those times have been SCARY, they have been HARD, they have been LONELY as I go against the world or against family or friends or against the "norm", but they have been AMAZING and God has used those times to bless me ABUNDANTLY!! Those times that I stepped out in faith are the times that I have grown the most and learned the most. When I am following God's plans for my life I feel so close to God and they are treasured times! So...what does God have planned for you? A new job, a new church, a surgery, quitting a job, having children, adopting a child, moving, homeschooling, starting a new ministry, befriending someone, or changing your life in some drastic way? God is in control and God is way bigger than whatever you are worried about! Step out in faith and trust HIM who knows the beginning, middle and end of your life story.
