Quitting my job and acting in faith.

Uncertainty is an interesting place to sit with God. I can see one step in front of me, but no further. I cannot look back either.

There has been an interesting tug between us. Me wandering over here and Him firmly planted over there. So really, I guess I am the one tugging every which way, trying to find the correct path, when in reality, He is the right path.

This Sunday, I was babysitting some kiddos and we decided to skip church and go to the lake. I felt good about the choice, no guilt, which surprised me. Tonight, I realized why.

I have been very caught up in writing a book lately. I recently finished it and have jumped into the world of publishing. I have told a few people that I do not know what I will do if this does not work out. I really cannot see beyond this step. I have been thinking about career options and my future daily, wondering what is in store for me.

Tonight, I was reading the scriptures, and I had this thought running through my mind. When I focused on it, it happily took a firm seat, allowing me to hear it clearly.

It sounded something like this:

“It does not really matter what you do for your profession. Your purpose and your mission is to serve God and testify of Him. He has to come first or nothing else matters.”

So, not going to church is not in line with that for me. Not giving my all in my service is not an option. Life is meaningless if I am not living it for Him, and I think I lost sight of that for a little while.

Something cool about God is that He multiplies the time that we give Him. The more time we give Him, the more time He gives us.
