You've been waiting for God to do something. Well, He's been waiting for you to do something: to start walking in the direction of where you believe He wants you to go, even if there's a closed door or a flooded river in front of you. See, that's His problem. Your problem is to get moving in the direction He's leading! http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Prov.4.11-Prov.4.13&version=NIV 2009-07-21T15:49:15-05:00 God will guide our steps if we only let Him. In these proverbs we are told that God will lead us in the way of wisdom and our steps will not be hampered. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Most-Important-Relationship/The-Navigator-and-the-Map-5592 2008-07-21T14:16:16-05:00 As you look at what's ahead, you wish you had a detailed map. You don't. And even if you do, it is subject to all kinds of variables beyond your control. There's nothing in these verses about trusting in the plan, in the map. You don't have a map, but you do have a navigator. And He has the map. Just like me and my wife on a trip in new territory. I don't have to see the map. I just need to trust the navigator - to pay attention to the Navigator.
