The next right thing

Reading: Job 3-4, Luke 7, and Revelation 5

Scripture: Job 3:11-12, Why did I not die at birth, come out from the womb and expire? Why did the knees receive me? Or why the breasts, that I should nurse?

Thoughts: So often when we are going through trials or things are hard, we talk about Job and all the things that were done to him and that he did not sin or curse God. As I was reading this sounded like the ravings of an extremely depressed man. I know we have the differing view from this side of the cross. Job is sitting there asking why am I here? Why did I not die in the womb or at birth. Job like many people do not know or see their purpose in the is world. We all cannot be Billy Graham or Chris Tomlin or name any other influential person, but we all have a part to play we all are part of the body of Christ. Just as Anna says in Frozen 2 “But you must go on and do the next right thing” We are call to a life of ups and downs battles and wars, but God had places something before us to keep striving for when we arrive at that step, he will reveal the next right thing. 

Prayer: Father God, you are so wonderful, your glory shines from all creation, your love overflows my cup. I lay my desires at your feet and look to you for the next right thing. I thank you for all you are doing in my life the molding and refining that you are doing daily. I thank you for those you have brought into my life and point to you. I thank you for your provisions and blessings that are new every day. I ask that you help me to see the next steps and walk in your way.
