So much talk about the future lately, where am I going to be? What am I going to be doing? And to be honest with you, I really don't know. Yes, I suppose these are important questions that require both thought and action. And I have prayed about this diligently.
But through these prayers over the past few months, I have no specific answer of where, when, or what. But I do have this: "His master said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master'" (Matthew 25:21).
In my struggle to find the bigger picture of my life, the larger vision and ministry, I think about this verse and I realize I'm not there yet. In a good way.
This verse is an encouragement to me to continue growing and being faithful in the little things... then the big things will come. I do not know what it will be. But I know I am being prepared. and my faithfulness to God is the only path that leads me there. So I will continue down the road of ever growing faithfulness. Now where that physically leads me in this season of life? I don't know that it matters... as long as I am growing in faithfulness.
So that is my plan.
To be faithful till the end. In all things big and small.
I long to hear Him say "well done, good and faithful servant."
