I say this often…
We can only see what we can see…
I don’t know why…
I just find times that it seems to fit…
Sometimes the simplest statements have the largest meaning…
The fact is…
We can only see what we can see…
The rest requires faith…
In my experience, sometimes God lets you see miles down the road…
He told me once, for example, to plant a church…
17 months later we launched…
(That was after the 10 years I ignored what He was saying…but that’s another story…)
Sometimes God lets you see only a few steps…
It was that way when God called me into ministry…
I had no idea where I was headed next…
I could only see what I could see…
The rest required faith…
When you can’t see beyond the steps…and even when you can…
Remember “we walk by faith, not by sight” (2 Cor 5:7)
Because…
We can only see what we can see…
What about you?
Are you seeing the miles…or are you seeing the steps?
I'm seeing absolutely nothing right now. It's frustrating as all get out.
I've seen the mile marker, and I'm taking the steps.
As of Friday, when I put in my two week's notice at my job in obedience and blind faith, i can see all of three inches in front of me. It's really, really scary but also kind of exciting.
