The mind of man plans his way,
but the LORD directs his steps.
Proverbs 16:9
Nothing wrong with planning. Nothing wrong with thinking it
through. Nothing wrong with doing your charts, listing all the pros and cons,
talking it over . . .
But as you are moving along, stay sensitive to the quiet,
yet all-important prompting of God through His Holy Spirit. It's easier to
steer a moving car. Just get the car rolling and you can push it into the
filling station to get the gas. But it's hard to get it moving from a dead
stop.
So you're on your way, you're making your plans, you're thinking
it through. Just stay open. . . .
As author Henry Blackaby says, "Watch to see where God
is at work and join Him!" Just go there. Why do you want to be anywhere
God isn't at work?
