What if it’s more about the journey than the destination?
I keep taking the next step forward, not knowing exactly where I'm going. That doesn't sound like a good navigational plan. The key is that God is navigating, so I don't have to worry about where we are going. I just have to keep up!
I've been picturing myself walking across a creek deep enough that I need stepping stones to cross it. But the catch is that I can't see the stones! I know they are there, and I know they are just below the surface. From a distance, you cannot see the stones, but when you are about to step on a stone, you can see it clearly.
I didn't understand each step of the journey, and I wasn't even sure where the journey was taking me. But I know that God is with me each step of the way and reveals where each stone is just when I need to see where to step. And occasionally, he has even been so gracious to show me a couple of stones at a time!
I know the next step I am taking with a slight pivot in my business and additional education is the right next step. I still don't know where it will lead, and I'm okay with that. The journey across the creek so far has worked out, and I know that if I keep my eyes on Him, He won't let me step off into the creek.
What journey are you taking that requires you to keep your eyes on the next stone instead of worrying about the destination? It's okay to take life one step at a time.
