God Is in Our Stops

“In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.” – Proverbs 16:9 When there’s an obstacle in our way, most people take the path of least resistance. They either turn away, curse the darkness, blame someone else, or try a little bit and then give up and walk away. But there is that certain type of person, that is not only able to get through the obstacle, but they’re also able to turn it to their benefit. And I think this is the kind of thinking that Christianity does. When we live in the Kingdom of the Heavens, we’re able to not get so bothered by losing our job. For God is not just in our steps, but also in our stops. Maybe God has a new opportunity available for me and I would never have had the faith to step out, so He’s pushing me.
