It's Time to Stop!

It’s time to stop…and notice what God is up to all around me.


I went for my “faith” walk this morning. I asked God to show me what His Will is for my life. He had me side-tracked…noticing the nature around me. I saw a baby turtle sunning next to the mama turtle at the pond. There was a HUGE bull frog sitting in the mud. A giant bee collecting pollen…several blue jays chasing each other, following me…

The problem is that I’m always in such a one-focused hurry, that I miss what God is doing in the “here and now” all around me. Interesting. He might just be looking for my attention in a matter that is of utmost concern to Him at that very moment and I’m too busy looking at the horizon, wondering what’s on the other side.

I sent some emails to the district asking for someone to help “mentor” me in the itinerant evangelist realm. I got one response so far. I feel like this is a necessary step for me as I’m venturing into the unknown and unfamiliar for me.

In the meanwhile, I am still wondering about decisions to be made on the job front. I guess I will cross that bridge when I come to it. Until then, I will stop and notice what God is doing all around me.
