Day 46 - Move On

So yesterday I mentioned that it was time to sit a while and relax into God.  I did but also heard in my Spirit that the battle is never won "sitting."  There must be movement, forward is best, in order to lay hold of anything.  So I determined that as easy as it would be to sit and relax I needed to get moving again.

Let me ask the question, "Have you ever felt like you were just putting one foot in front of the other?  You really didn't have a sensing one way or the other as to what you are supposed to do?  Does the not knowing sometimes hinder you and make you question in your mind?"  Well then I know I'm not alone.  It seems that the more difficulty I face the harder it is to know what to do.  This is why I stopped to rest and relax.

But then it dawned on me when I stop moving I am in essence halting progress.  That may seem like a "well, duh!" kind of statement but it is as real as a physical manifestation.  If you stop an activity, you have to sometimes work harder to get it going again.  I felt this is was happening when I was stopped to relax. Was I real close to a break through part of my healing? I had not heard the Lord tell me to relax so I guess I was intended to press on, persevere, keep moving and watch to see what happens.

Lord, I am going to get going and keep going.  Unless I know it is You asking me to slow or stop I am going to push on through the tight places, keeping my confidence in You to show me the way and the truth along the way.  Amen

So I got up, put my boots back on and set out.  I know the journey will be long with much left to work through but I need to keep forward progress going when the steps get tough.  I need to dig in and watch what God reveals in the process.  I am eager to be healed and will do my part in keeping on when I want to stop for awhile.  I trust God to give me rest when I need it.
