You can’t learn from experience without experiences.
You can’t see God’s hand at work in everyday life without working and serving and seeking in everyday life.
Sitting at a desk; reading a book; even keeping a pew warm will not bring about a forceful advancement of the kingdom of God.
Doing something will.
And we don’t have to guess at what Jesus would have us do.
He has told us. And shown us.
And will tell us again if we will ask and listen.
And then we must obey.
Sometimes in obeying we are taking leaps of faith. We wonder if we heard correctly. Or if we really heard at all, or if we’re just crazy and talking to ourselves.
And then we wonder if what we are doing really makes a difference or really counts for anything.
But if God told you, He will affirm you. And if/when He affirms you, you can know that the accomplishments are having a far greater and farther reaching impact than you could ever imagine.
“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, No mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him.”
