Okay, what next?

I have been known more recently to be willing to do anything. It never used to be that way. You see, I used to rely on people, or myself, and people always hurt me and I just plain let myself down. Now that I rely on God, I know that whatever he has planned for me is going to be good.

Let's take this recent example of me and Celebrate the Journey. The very first time I walked in there, I said I don't need the 12 steps. I snicker now, because that is exactly what God is going to be having me do. I am joining the 12 step group and going in pretty much blind. I have never done this before, and yes I am scared because it is new, but God is good, and He won't give me anything I cannot handle.

I found that when I plan things, I get let down. Once I invited 36 people to my birthday party and only 3 showed up. So, now I am trusting in God. Okay God, what is next? You want me to do what? Okay, I will go. I find so much joy and fulfillment in being obedient, I find my needs not only getting met, but being exceeded! See, I know that He is faithful, and whatever it is that God wants for me is just going to blow my mind. I only expect that whatever it is, I am going to grow, and be filled and be loved and it will just be so great I cannot even put it into words.

See, I know this because I trusted God with a few small things, and it was good. Yet the more and more I trust God with, the better it gets. It may never be what I would think or plan, but it all works out (See Romans 8:28).

I dare you. I dare you to trust God with something small and see what He does with it. Guarantee, He's gonna blow your mind!
