Move!!

It has been said, “let’s pull anchor and set sail and see which way the wind takes us.” Sounds fun doesn’t it. Carefree! I remember going on vacation as a kid. We often knew a general direction we were going but not always a real plan. Before you grab a rope to hang me I want to say I’m not speaking against planning! Planning is good. I find a little good in both ideas here. In life, it’s good to plan. And then pray about your plan. That is wise. It’s also been said,” it’s hard to change the direction of an anchored ship.” At some point you have to leave the planning stage and move on. Get started. Set sail!! Yes there are times that storms might come and cause us to change direct or change our plans but that’s okay if we are moving but if you never leave nothing happens. Our spiritual life of being witnesses is no different. We can study our bibles and run ideas of how we would witness through our heads a million times but at some point we have to exercise our faith and trust God. Proverbs 3:5&6 says, trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path. When we set sail in our Christian life it’s not all Willy nilly. If we trust Jesus, he will guide us. Sometimes we might have a change in direction but that is most likely God directing our path!! Thank you Lord for giving us direction. Help us not to stay anchored but to pull anchor and set sail, trusting in you to guide us!!
Go! God is with you!!
