“Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him. 1 John 5:14-15 (NKJV)
For about 10 months, my husband and I have been asking for God’s guidance and grace in our occupations. We discovered what we believed was His plan and took the next steps. Then, we waited and waited (mostly on the human side of things, believing that God would direct the situation within His plan). For the last 2 months, we have simply waited for an answer. And answer God did…with a resounding NO!!!!
How frustrating! We just knew that this was the plan, and then it wasn’t. But God knows what he is doing…within 30 minutes of recieving our answer, He reaffirmed–in a big way. We are supposed to continue doing what we’re doing; and we are supposed to continue trusting Him.
