What Are You Doing "Next" When Things Are Not Going According To Your Plan?

What are you doing when things are not looking the way you wanted them to or expected them to look?   Are you staying in faith?   Are you standing on God's Word?   What are you doing next?   The word "next" means that which comes immediately following.   How is your follow-up?   When you follow-up, you build on something that was started earlier.    We have to get to the place where we are building on and strengthening our walk and our faith in God.  

One thing we must understanding is the beginning of a thing is not the end of it.   We have to stop quitting in the middle of the process.    Quitting is a behavior.  It is a way in which we conduct ourselves.   Behaviors can change, if we choose to change them.    We have to learn how to persevere through the process.   Processes can be quick and easy but they also can be more in depth and require more steps to complete.   We have to learn how to trust God through the process of life.   When we trust Him, we know that He is in control and we know that He will take care of us.  

What will be the "next" thing you do after you read this post.   Will you solidify God's Word in your heart?  Will you trust Him and stay in faith for what He has promised to do in your life?   Will you walk with Him and talk to Him?   Will you allow Him to show Himself strong to you, through you, and for you?   Will you lay down your pre-conceived notions and allow His Word to infiltrate your heart and mind so that you can be strong in Him?  

What you do "next" is up to you.

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION

James 1:6

But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
