HUMILITY AND THE FUTURE
At the precipice of change there will be a version of you that dies.
It's a version of you that has carried an expectation of what ought to happen.
It carries a version of the future that won't be anymore.
That expectation is what will glean the glory of God away from Him, even if unknowingly.
That expectation is that version of you that desires a sense of ownership in the things of God.
God is using these moments to draw our attention to faithfulness instead of restlessness.
Faithfulness resists shortcuts and remains in submission.
Faithfulness yields what you think you own to find rest in God's ownership of the process.
Faithfulness leads us to humility.
Humility does not find its own meaning.
Instead humility will keep us committed and rightly aligned with what meaning, purpose, and success are to God.
Humility will draw focus back to the process.
Humility makes no room for shortcuts to the process that originated with God, and what requires God's fruit of faithfulness to complete.
Humility to God's process will remind us of the individual components that make the motion and keep momentum.
Humility to God's process also will remind us that we are not so different than anyone else.
Humility to God's process will draw our focus to the reality that a "streamlined process" can mean overlooking the individual that needs attention, including yourself.
Yielding may cost the moment
but you will gain the future.
The point.
The version that must be left behind is not inclusive or expansive enough for the people, places, things, and ideas that God will speak to you and The Body about.
Allow Him the ability to cultivate this room - to hear, speak, approach, respond, and think newly about some things.
As a result, God will have created a pathway through you, instead of one that ends with you.
Today, thank God for the process.
Bless Him for the paths of His righteousness that He's making through you.
Thank Him for the attention to detail He has and ask Him to reveal more of His view in you.
