Get Out of His Way, into His Will

You read it in books and hear it in top 40 radio songs. In every venue, seemingly shallow or deep by society’s standards, people are asking God-sized questions. People are hungering for something more, something bigger than themselves. What we tend to do, however, is shrink our huge questions be turning the focus on ourselves. For instance, “God what are you up to?” is a far different question than “God, why did this happen…to me?” There is nothing wrong with our questions, I truly believe that God loves them, but we have the temptation to ask a big question, and then make ourselves the focus rather than our creator. Sometimes we just need to step out of the way and let God be God in our lives. Maybe He is trying to do something way bigger than you, something, should we say, greater than you could ever ask or imagine, and He only needs us to step aside and quit trying to be the center of the universe. God isn’t waiting for your permission to work, He is waiting for you to get out of His way so He can blow your mind. In the words of Loyd Christmas, “move it or lose it, sister!”
