Revelation

Do you ever wonder where God is taking you next? Are you sometimes anxious about that? Does it seem like sometimes the answers come way too slowly. Maybe it even seems at times like the answers never come at all?

Good! That means I am not alone!!! See, sometimes I think maybe its just me. I feel a whole lot better now.

There is a song by Third Day I have been listening to some lately. There is a link to it at the end of this blog if you're interested. The song is about leaving the anguish of trying to figure out everything on your own and learning to lean on God for direction in your life. Ultimately, its about trust and its about faith.

The chorus goes something like this:

"Give me a revelation, show me what to do,

'cause I've been trying to find my way, I haven't got a clue,

tell me should I say here, or do I need to move,

give me a revelation, I've got nothing without you."

You notice how there is both a confession and a plea here? The confession is that we have no idea where we are going without God and, just as importantly, that we are nothing without Him. The plea is that God will guide us where we need to go -- "give me a revelation."


I am definitely in a season where its time to ask God what's next. Its a time to be patient. Its a time to be still and quiet. Its a time to immerse myself in His word. Maybe that's where you are too?
