It’s in the smallest of ways that He chooses to lead us so we can take the smallest of steps to get somewhere big
Taking the small steps God gives us to take is about trust . . . and it’s relational to its core.
It isn’t a “to-do” list of things God wants from us.
This is not about getting from point “A” to point “B” as efficiently as possible.
If it is something I have already learned and am still learning is this:
Anything human will always be messy
That is why all of this is relationship and is at its core, relational. It isn’t about accomplishing a new goal we have set for ourselves. It isn’t even about the things itself that we are to do or accomplish when it’s time to.
It’s always about relationship.
The second we take that out of how we live our lives is the moment we have taken out the “life” that gives us contentment and fulfillment in our lives.
It is relationship with our Creator that gives “life” to our life.
He gives us small steps through stirring certain desires in our hearts . . . or by giving us ideas to try new things or do things a different way than what we see or are used to.
He places promptings in us to take action or He gives us a sense of direction where He wants us to head that gives us vision for the future.
But it is always through and in our relationship with Him and with those who He has placed around us in which we are stirred and prompted and moved to taking steps.
It’s in the smallest of ways that He chooses to lead us so we can take the smallest of steps to get somewhere big.
We aren’t to struggle or strive or manipulate our lives.
We were not created to.
In our attempts to control everything is where stress and fear breed.
It is in relationship with God and trusting Him alone where we find true freedom . . . freedom to live like we have always wanted to live.
When we are faced with challenges or darkness, we find that if we have built a relationship with learning to trust Him before those hard times come, we will depend on Him during those hard times.
God doesn’t lead us to the next steps in our journey with a list of things we need to get done.
He stirs us patiently and with desires and passions and feeds a fire deep within us through encouragement and truth.
It is His Spirit within us that leads us and guides us through a sweet a steady communion with our hearts . . .
It is here where we find our journey unravel.
Here with Him where we find our life.
If He has our hearts trusting Him, He has our lives to lead towards the journey He has for us to take.
Forward on.
