Next Step


You may not be sure what to do. 

Consider this: 

Ask God for wisdom. 
Spend time in His word (continually), particularly in sections that speak to the issue you are facing, but also widely to grasp the big picture. 
Listen for God’s word as He speaks to you. 
Get counsel from someone who is more knowledgeable and experienced than you are at this point or in this matter, and pray for discernment. 
Keep listening for God’s word to you and for the sense of His Spirit as He moves and leads. 
Do anything you know to be good steps, even if they are costly to you or if they seem “not enough” in your perspective. 
Keep listening as He continues to guide. 
Keep in rhythm with what He tells you. 
Trust that He is working in many unseen ways as you do your best to follow Him. 

He is faithful and He will lead.  He knows who He is working with and asks only for access to a contrite heart that desires to know and do His will.  He goes all the extra steps to help us.
