God's Gentle Nudges

Ever had those moments where God seems to nudge you when you have failed to move? Those moments when it feels as if He's trying to get your attention, when He wants your trust. I am convinced that God desires for each of us to have peace, "for He is our peace" (Eph 2:14). If I'm honest with myself, my greatest sources of unrest are not the "what ifs" of life. My greatest source of unrest is living in the indecision that comes from not trusting that God is enough and He will provide.

I often walk through my days in this uncertainty, when I was never meant to. I am not promised tomorrow. I may never hear God's audible voice. I may not know for sure every possible outcome of the decisions I make. BUT, I trust the One who prompts my heart, the one who speaks softly into my heart asking me to step out in faith. I am not created to know how life will unfold, but to trust in the One who knows the hairs on my head (Lk 12:7) and laid His life down for me on the Cross.

So today, let's take the next step and trust that God will be in that moment. His nudges are gentle because He is a patient God.
