one of my favorite devotionals...

I know, O Lord, that a man's life is not his own; it is not for man to direct his steps... Jeremiah 10:23

Whatever the particular call is, the particular sacrifice God asks you to make, the particular cross He wishes you to embrace, whatever the particular path He wants you to tread, will you rise up, and say in your heart, "Yes, Lord, I accept it; I submit, I yield, I pledge myself to walk in that path and to follow that Voice and to trust Thee with the consequences?" Oh! but you say, "I don't know what He will want next." No, we none of us know that, but we know we shall be safe in His hands. (Catherine Booth)

WWJD? Reflection

The guidance of God can be likened to a flashlight on a foggy night that shines only one step ahead. If we were to see several steps more, we would have no reason to trust God--or if we saw that the steps were leading to conflict, we might back away from lack of faith.

Although it's natural to want to see ahead, it's also natural for God to create circumstances that lead us to trust Him--one step at a time. Trusting God for every step of the way is how Jesus lived.

We, too, can trust God for our next unseen step.
