Following God...

 It is in our human nature to look for immediate solutions rather than seeking the Eternal Source for the right direction. Why is this that so many times we tend to look in every other place rather than seeking the Word of God? The reason for this is that we often don’t want to take the effort nor assume the responsibility for the actions which need to be taken. Another reason is that when we don’t understand who is in control, we try to simply control things ourselves because we simply do not know how to wait on God.

 Within every waiting period there is growth and strength that should be taken place while learning to hold on to the Promises of God in obedience to His Word. These time periods are like the rings in a tree for in every ring of time we should be maturing and working to keep our house clean as our roots are deepening further in the foundation of God. May I challenge you this morning to seek God in prayer before you look in any other direction. Learn to listen to His guidance as He gives and be willing to simply do as He instructs….
