Dear little Richard,
You want to be a godly man, don’t you? Well, part of
becoming God’s man is figuring out what God wants you to do – and doing it. I
mean, find God’s purpose for your life. I know… it isn’t always easy to
discover God’s plans. Why? Because God’s purposes aren’t always clear as you
might like; sometimes God speaks in a quiet voice when you’re alone, sometime
through books that you read, sometimes through friends and people in general,
and most of the time through His living Word, the Bible. “I will instruct you and show you the way to go,” God’s promises, “with My eye on you, I will give counsel”
(Psalm 32:8).
In doing so I don’t want you to be in such a hurry [also]
to understand God’s unfolding plan for your life. Remember that God operates
according to a perfect timetable. That timetable is His, not ours. Be passionate about it and at the same time
– be patient. I believe, my little brother that God has big things in store
for you, but such a good God that He is, He may have quite a few lessons to
teach you before you are fully prepared to do His will and fulfil His purpose
in your life. I like what Beth Moore writes, “Only God’s chosen task for you will ultimately satisfy. Do not wait
until it is too late to realize the privilege of serving Him in His chosen
position for you.”
May you genuinely
try to figure out God’s purpose for your life. If so, you can be sure that with
God’s help, you will eventually discover it. And when you discover His plans
for you, you’re in for an exciting ride!
I found mine,
And many more to discover,
Richard
THINK BIG.
START SMALL. GO DEEP.
