Do Something

Have you ever noticed that sometimes life simply gets in the way of your plans? For the past two weeks or so, I have planned on posting something meaningful, but the busyness of those days consumed my time and to be honest, my creativity. I would look at the blank page and think, “I really need to post something meaningful,” but felt that there was nothing meaningful to say.

Today, was another overly busy day. The Bishop, Superintendent and other Annual Conference leaders were at our church for the Bishop’s Day on the District. Between meetings and various hospitality commitments, the time went quickly – or I should say, is going quickly, as there are still a few more hours to go.

It was in the midst of all of this activity, that I realized that possibly I was phrasing my thoughts to myself the wrong way. What I needed to say was, “I need to post something.” I would like it to be meaningful, but nothing was going to happen if I did not do something.

I began to think of something that a friend of mine often says, “No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.” Sometimes, we simply need to do something, no matter how small. We need to take whatever action we can and see where it leads us. Often, that first action will lead to more opportunities and ideas for future actions and before long, we are moving forward with speed.

I have faith that my action today, will lead to to more for the future. It is time to trust God and take a step. Could it be that time for you? What step could you take in your life right now? Maybe it will be the step that unlocks God’s vision and future for your life. Just imagine the possibilities.

Thanks for your patience. It is good to be back.
