Do the Next Thing
Journal Excerpts:
January 30, 2018 – I see a wall ahead of me. I can’t see around it. Vision. I’m supposed to have vision. But I only see the next step in front of me.
April 19, 2018 – I feel very lost. I don’t know where to focus my thoughts. On business? On family?
I feel lost and need direction. The answer I keep hearing is: do the next step!
Lord, You will guide me to and through the next step. May I not be anxious. May I trust You.
“The mind of man plans his way,
but the Lord directs his steps.”
~ Proverbs 16:9
“As thou goest step by step,
I will open up the way before you.”
~ Proverbs 4:12 (Syriac Version)
Do you have dishes to do? Do the dishes. Do you need to mow the lawn? Mow the lawn. Do you need to return a client’s call? Call the client. Do you need to finish a project? Finish the project. Is it time to eat lunch? Eat lunch. Do you need to call your dad? Call your dad. Does the car need gas? Go get gas.
Do the next thing. Do the next step. When life is full of unknowns and when future plans are nonexistent, just do the next thing.
Be accouraged.
