Walking By Faith Simplified

I was hungry and I wanted to step out to get something to eat that evening.

Already, while coming back, I had spent over 2 minutes on the way to my house thinking of what to get.

I got back home and I dressed up.
I had another thought and I didn't go again.

Dressed up again and stepped out, already I was feeling reluctant to go, but I wasn't paying attention - I was hungry!

I finally stepped out, only to see that is was raining.

Argh.

I stood for a while and thought of what I should do - go back home? Or continue my journey in the rain?

Since I was already feeling cold, going back home was the only option, but do I go back and come out again with an umbrella?

I thought of how many minutes I will spend doing that, especially as it was already late, and I just decided to cancel it totally, and then I had rest.

You see, when we quote "as many as are led by the Spirit, these are sons of GOD" we expect a voice-in-the-cloud kinda leading.

But we don't pay attention to the restlessness we feel in our Spirits or in our hearts, or the tiny little funny delays we keep experiencing when we are about to do something.

I was already restless, and I figured that maybe I'll drop my phone at home, just to settle that restlessness. 😅

But until I finally decided not to go anymore, I thought back on how I hadn't been comfortable since.

And NO! you don't have to know what would happen if you do go.

When you say "I walk by faith and not by sight" it is not only when you are expecting a job or a baby.

It is also when your Spirit hinders you from going, or when GOD tells you not to go and you don't go!

That moment, you just walked by faith!
