I’ve been a little reflective the past few days, especially regarding my spiritual journey and the ministries I’m involved in. This past year I have grown spiritually by leaps and bounds (don’t get me wrong, I still have a loooong way to go…but God has truly taken me on a journey closer to Him). Not only have I grown spiritually, but God has given me some pretty incredible ministries…and done some incredible work in each one of them.
But as I reflect on the past, it has me thinking about the future. And I’ve been asking one question during my prayer and meditation time specifically: What’s Next?
What’s Next…
for Men’s Ministry?
for LifeGroup?
for the men I’m accountable to?
for my Spiritual Journey?
for my Family (and my role as husband and father)?
The thing is, I’ve enjoyed the journey so far and I’ve learned and grown…but I’m not sure what God has in store next. I do know that He will continue to challenge and teach and grown me…just not sure how or in what arenas. I also know that I don’t want any of the list above (and those I didn’t even include) to stagnate. As Paul said in Philippians 3:13-14, I want to “focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.”
I’m looking to Him and the spiritual leaders around me for guidance, direction, and leading. I know He has my best (and yours) at heart, no matter where He takes me or what He asks me to do.
The journey continues…
