Where God Leads, He Provides

Over the last few weeks, I’ve been battling some of those hard questions about where God is leading me right now.  I know where I am most passionate, and what I am called to do.  Seeing what that means for us financially may be the issue that I am left dealing with.

Here’s the hardest thing that I’ve been working through lately.

How can I as a (soon to be) parent, say to my child “Do what God had called you to do.” when I am not currently doing that myself?  I don’t think I can in any kind of honest way, communicate that more effectively than through my actions.

So, for me… it means hunting that out.  Taking God at His word when He says.  “Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.” in Deuteronomy 6:5

This is more than just something internal that we must recognize, it is a commissioning of purpose.

So, when I begin asking the questions “where is the money coming from to pay the water bill this month?” it’s not being unfaithful, it’s just a question of ‘am I being the best steward?’ or ‘am I where God wants me?’ and ‘how can I get there?’
