I don’t know you @restored_souls but thanks for this reminder! When I was young and had decided to answer the call to ministry - I knew that I knew I was called but I wasn’t sure what I should do next. The Holy Spirit told me to just serve and live and listen. So I did. I’ve enjoyed serving and loving and listening in many churches and communities over the years, and it’s been an amazing Journey.
When I wasn’t sure what was next, I would try to focus on the last thing I knew the Lord had asked of me, and keep doing that while I waited. You see, waiting on the Lord is an activity. Sometimes the thing I was supposed to do, my assignment, was to rest. For me, those were hard seasons because I’m a “doer.” (I can hear some of you laughing right now, because you know)
I have learned to rest and I’ve learned that rest isn’t just about recovering from something - it’s preparation for what’s next! God knows what is coming and is always preparing your for it.
So what was the last thing God told you to do? Are you still doing it?
