A Call to Respond, So Respond!

Hello everyone and welcome to this week's "60 Seconds..." devotional counterpart!

Would it surprise you if I said that I was listening to Classic FM's very own "Smooth Classics" as I write this?

What's that? No, you're not surprised?! :-P

Well, I guess you really are getting to know me, which is more than can be said of me and a certain person! :-D

But whatever, I'm here now to talk a little bit more about what I raised in my broadcast yesterday; the fact that when God speaks, He moves and so surely our response should be to do likewise...

That is not always possible for some people, though, is it?

Believing What You See vs. Believing What He Said

 

Some people like to have evidence of what they are getting involved in before they get involved in the first place. For some people, just the mere idea of jumping in with both feet scares the life out of them.

But what is that only a fear of the unknown.

Wouldn't you find that you might be more likely to jump into a situation if you knew what the outcome was going to be?

Say, for instance, you are courting and you want to know where it's all going to end up, which is what anyone would want to know given half the chance. Wouldn't it make it easier for you if you knew what was coming?

Yes, it might make it easier but would you appreciate the journey?

If I was to meet a young woman and fall in love, would I want to know where every single step is going?

Not a frickin' chance!

Why? Because it takes all the fun, the romance and the adventure out of it!

This is why I enjoy seeing a couple of friends of mine and all their relationship updates on Facebook. It sickens some, sad to say, but I love it, I cannot get enough of it because they look so happy together!

I'm actively encouraging it with my comments and you know what? I don't give a rat's a$$ because you only live once so make the most of it!

This is why I feel challenged so much when I have completed a study like this; I have seen how God formed the heavens and the earth all by the commands from His mouth.

Yet here we are doubting Him as to whether He will fulfil His word!

Final Thought

What have I said recently?

That I'm "burying my feelings in a box" over someone, when what I really should be saying is that God promised me a most amazing, beautiful partner to enjoy life with... so let that be enough and just see what happens instead of trying to work everything out myself!

I can't do it, I openly admit it, even with my eidetic memory, I cannot work every single detail out of my life.

But guess what? God can!

Peace out!
