This season of my life amazes me.
I shared with you last week about how the more I’ve felt called into a life of ‘Walking in Obedience’, the more God has done with it. http://edx.kwi.mybluehost.me/obey-god-and-leave-the-consequences-to-him/
This week I received a message from someone I had previously been connected with through business. As the world is a small one, we then became connected on social media.
He reached out with a sincere message, saying that he’d been asking God for guidance and he felt led to reach out to me.
One of my prayers is for me to be wise with my time, but to give it to those who needed it. This was one such situation and I offered to connect the same day.
You see, I know first hand when I’m asking God for something and I feel led to reach out to a person, and when I’m anxiously awaiting a conversation, the last thing I want to do is wait – so we scheduled time for a few hours later as we both had availability.
Within a moment of being on the phone, I offered if we could pray together. For me, praying together brings peace and wisdom and changes the tone of a meeting and I have seen what God does when we invite Him into a call, even in business meetings.
After we spoke, it was clear to both of us why we needed to speak. And, I just have to smile with God.
Friends, even though this person had met me through a business setting, he had become familiar with who I am through my writing – the writing I begrudgingly started many years ago.
There are quite a few of my business contacts that I have as a financial advisor who know me more through my writing and I have to smile as I look back and realize ‘my obedience to one thing has expanded to all areas of my life, and God has multiplied the impact’.
My question to you is: what is God calling you to do that you feel inadequate or unqualified for?
My assurance to you: if God has called you to it, He can do the impossible. Just step out on faith and trust Him.
Dear Heavenly Father, even now I’m amazed at what saying yes to you has meant for my life. I have seen you do the impossible with my ‘yes’. I can stand on faith now as you have written a story in my life that I could have never imagined in my wildest dreams. Help me to say yes to you over and over again.
