Ten Giant Steps

Little Thoughts For Big Days
Little Thoughts For Big Days

Confused about where you should be and when, and just what it is that God has for you to do anyway? Do you wonder why He seems so slow and why answers don’t come quickly or maybe don’t come at all? At least not in black and white or simple and straight forward? Sometimes it seems like ten baby steps ahead and then five giant steps backwards. What on earth is going on? Why is life so difficult and moving forward so extremely painful?


Ho hum seasons are our calling as they lead us deeper into spiritual maturity! just keep moving faithfully, doing what you do to fulfil commitments and schedules. Make sure to rest to prevent burn out, but “rest assured” that God still leads in the giant steps backwards as well as the baby steps forward. He will fulfil His purpose in your life regardless of how useless and unimportant you feel. He refreshes parched souls and increases strength with His power. Everything you experience is customized just for your needs and He’ll make it work for you if you let Him. He may ultimately guide you through ten giant steps forward. Be refreshed and ready when He does.

“The Lord will guide you always and satisfy your needs in a sun scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.”
Isaiah 58:11

Making Your World “Go Round”

Little Thoughts For Big Days
Little Thoughts For Big Days

So, what’s on your “Go To” list? Those things that you think you can’t live without and the things that completely consume your thoughts, either in worry or pleasure? The things that you spend your money on and trick you into thinking their possession will satisfy your craving? The friends that allow you to fit like a glove and help you to blend in with the wallpaper regardless of their influence? The higher step on the ladder of success at all cost and maybe at someone else’s expense? All these things can make our world “Go Round” yet subtly consume our energy levels leaving us completely exhausted both physically and spiritually. When they become our passion they become our pride and our god! Remember pride comes before a fall so take care to stay balanced in all the good things of life. Practice the balancing act by beginning your day with God and letting Him in on your thoughts and plans. He already knows what they are so let Him help you with that. Be challenged to go deeper with Him in your faith walk! Give it all over and find that precious peace that results in letting go!

Exodus 20:1-26
“And God spoke all these words, saying, “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. “You shall have no other gods before me. “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me,”

Matthew 6:33
“But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”

Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

Little Thoughts For Big Days
Little Thoughts For Big Days

Maybe last year left you with battle scars and you feel afraid and alone in the midst of some pretty heavy stuff on your plate. As difficult as it is to keep walking through it ~ keep walking through it with the Lord guidance. It’s through  perseverance that our strength comes and our faith is made strong. Those things that don’t make any sense to you, don’t have to!  They will in time and when they do you’ll see it’s those very things that were being gently guided and controlled by your Faithful Heavenly Father.  Without any of your help it will all fall into place.  

Pray, Relax and Walk on dear friend. trusting God to lead the way.

Walk on ~ Don't give up!
Walk on ~ Don’t give up!

Psalms 27:14
“Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the LORD!”

Romans 12:12
“Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.”

God’s Call On Your Life

DSC03058 p

Luke 9: 23, 24

“Then he said to them all: “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it.”

Christ carried His humiliating and agonizing cross because of an amazing love that He had for His people. In order to bring salvation to a lost world He had to be obedient to His Father’s will. He fulfilled God’s purpose in His life and death, when He denied Himself of all rights and gave of Himself, freely and obediently, in His sacrificial death on the cross.

As His followers and as His disciples we have been commissioned to Go and make disciples of all nations Matthew 28:18 -20. We have been called to represent Christ in this same world lost in hopelessness and despair. God has equipped His people with spiritual gifts, special talents and skills to use for His work of building others up in the faith. Taking up our cross daily, is to be “obedient” to Christ in the work He has called us to. It may take us into frightening unknown places and places that aren’t pleasant. It may take us to beds of illness, heights of financial despair, rejections and disappointments, but through it all, ‘Self’ must take a back seat to allow us to get out there and be efficient in proclaiming the Good News of the Gospel of Christ to our circles of influence in a hopeless world.

Is it easy? No, it’s not easy! That’s why it’s a cross to carry! Discouragement can set in. We can become tired, fearful, dissatisfied and discontent. Hurt and broken we can fall away becoming like strangers to our faith on the skid row of our circumstances. In our hurt, we can easily become vulnerable to ravaging wolves and the enemy who seeks for whom he may devour,
1 Peter 5:8, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” Our desires get out of whack and our priorities get all mixed up. No, it’s not easy to be obedient to our Savior and our cross, so our cross for Christ must be a daily evaluation supported and bathed in prayer, for there is no room for ‘me’ on my cross as I carry it for Him. The irony of it is that our cross of obedience is the only way to fulfill His plan for our lives and the only thing that will bring abundant life to our living. We can’t explain it, it’s just His way! To try to hang on to selfish pleasures will only take us into the pit of sin and bring ruin, desolation and hardship and that’s where we don’t want to find ourselves.

Let’s remember, if the Lord calls us to it, He will take us through it, and bring blessing along the way.
