Reflections
Today was a day of transition for and myself. We took another step, even further on the water to follow Jesus! So much so that I felt something in my spirit shift and wanted to share this revelation that I hope is helpful to you.
When you have surrendered your life to God’s purpose and plan, follow where His peace leads.
God is always the Source—not people, places, jobs, opportunities, or circumstances. He may use any of these things as instruments, but our trust and dependence must remain in Him.
There is a discernment that comes through the Holy Spirit—a deep knowing that is cultivated as we become quiet before God, seek Him in prayer, and deliberately search His Word for His wisdom and direction. “In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” (Proverbs 3:6)
God is not the author of confusion. As we submit our plans to Him and seek His will, He gives us wisdom and direction. “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” (Romans 8:14)
Sometimes God’s direction will not make sense to our natural understanding. But when we are walking in obedience to Him, there can be a supernatural peace that confirms we are trusting His direction—even when the path requires faith.
And when we are moving outside of what God is leading us to do, we may begin to sense a growing holy discomfort. What once seemed manageable becomes increasingly unsettled. The situation becomes louder, the conviction becomes stronger, and the Holy Spirit begins drawing our attention back to God’s will.
That doesn't mean every uncomfortable circumstance means “leave.” Scripture calls us to test what we perceive, seek wise counsel, examine it against God’s Word, and discern whether we are being led by the Spirit or by fear, emotion, or our own desires.
The key is this: don't follow the feeling—follow God.
Get quiet. Pray. Open His Word. Surrender your own agenda. Ask Him for wisdom. And then obey what He reveals.
“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God… and it shall be given him.” (James 1:5)
When God is your Source, you don't have to manipulate people, chase opportunities, or force doors open. You can trust Him to lead you.
He created you.
He knows His plans for you.
He called you by name.
And you are His. — Isaiah 43:1
Follow Him. Trust Him. Test everything by His Word. And when He leads—obey.
