“Take the first step with love for Christ, and God will take care of the rest.”

Samuel Zur · The Road to Arabia

Scripture

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; submit to him in all your ways, and he will make your paths straight.

Reflection

As I took my first step in connecting with the mission today, I was reminded once again that God calls me not by circumstances, but by obedience of faith. Many times I try to control things, planning, calculating, and worrying, but Proverbs tells me that the true path begins with trust. When I entrust my wisdom, concerns, and unknowns to the Lord, He guides my steps in His own way. My responsibility is simply to "acknowledge Him," not to "see all the consequences." Today's first step is not based on courage, but on faith.
