Keep Trusting

What do you do when you KNOW God wants you to do something and yet everything you do to make it happen fails?

When God promised Abraham a child, He didn't tell him the schedule. As he and Sarah lived past child-bearing age, they took matters in their own hands. Sarah offered her handmaiden to bear Abraham a son. They named him Ishmael. Ishmael became the father of the Ishmealites, and they became the Arabs, who have been the enemies of the people of promise even to this day. 

We tend to mess things up when we use our own strength and knowledge to do God's will. 

Do you manipulate God's plan for your life or do you wait and hope and pray and listen for His leadership? Keep trusting.

Proverbs 3:5,6 Trust in The Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
