Sometimes God gives us an idea, a vision, a path to follow, but we second-guess whether it’s God. Or we are too afraid to step out in faith.
“Who am I to do this? I am not good at this.”
So we set it aside for now. It sits in the back of our mind with the belief that “someday” this might happen.
But then an opportunity arises, a door opens, the path in the road splits and if we had obeyed what God originally asked of us, we’d be prepared for the next step. If we had stepped out in faith and trusted God, we’d be ready.
God prompted me a while back to do two things: learn to study the Bible at a deeper level and lead small groups in my home to teach other women how to study the Bible.
I started studying but then I let up. I thought I had time on my side. Maybe I still do. That’s the wonder of God: He can still work it all out.
An opportunity presented itself that I should have been more prepared for, simply because God asked me months ago to do something very specific.
Has God nudged you to do something, and you delayed obeying?
