Was, Is, and Will Be

I'm somebody who likes to look ahead to the next thing. Sometimes there isn't a next thing to see, which is kind of where I am right now, or the next thing is a long way off maybe without a time line attached. These are times when I have to take a step back and think about how I have gotten to this point. There are so many ways God moves and many different actions He asks us to take.  Some of those actions land us in a great spot. Others put us in quite an earthly predicament. That's how I feel right now. The actions God has asked us to take, and the obedience of taking those actions has put us in an earthly predicament. It is not life or death, but we feel hard pressed on every side. As I've written before, it becomes imperative for me to look back and see where God was faithful in the midst of the action. And, in order to move forward, I stand on the solid rock of Jesus with my feet poised for the next step of faith.  I do not know what will happen next.  I do not know what action we will be called to take. I do know that God was, is, and will be faithful to the calling to which He has given us. I don't need my "what's next" question answered; I need to stay connected to Jesus.
